The power of people and products
and the connection that makes all the difference
People and products. The connection is powerful.
As more companies become product-led, I continue to see the close relationship between people and products. It’s an exciting transformation! Along with that, the rise of Chief Product Officers (CPOs) across industries highlights the pivotal role of great minds in driving innovation.
CPOs prove this fundamental truth: great people advance great products. They understand that success does not hinge on groundbreaking products but on developing a product leadership team that pushes the boundaries of innovative ideas.
The path to innovation begins with building a culture of excellence. By leveraging their collective knowledge and passion, visionary CPOs push their organizations toward greatness, revolutionizing products in the process.
And that is why we celebrate the best product leaders through our annual CPO Awards. We recognize world-class Chief Product Officers each year who lead organizations to develop products that are transforming the world. Over the past two years, out of hundreds of nominations, 40+ leaders were selected as winners by our independent Awards Advisory Board. These are revolutionary CPOs from companies like Under Armour, Bose, HP, Fidelity, Royal Caribbean, and Experian.
Do you know a CPO deserving of this top honor? If so, I want to encourage you to nominate them for our 2024 CPO Awards. Nominations close February 28th!
