Product Therapy is a participant-led meetup where product professionals (owners, managers, directors, etc.) share problems, trade tips and help each other.
During each event, 20 to 30 participants are split into groups of 6 or 8. In the first 5 minutes, participants are asked to write down a problem they are facing and the type of feedback or support they would like from the group and put in a bowl. When the session starts, problems are pulled from the bowl one by one and discussed by the groupe for 10 to 12 minutes.
Generally, the events start at 6PM and finish around 9PM. However, they can last longer depending on participant energy.
As participants are split into smaller groups, we have found that having 3 or 4 spots where discussions could be held to be ideal.
The real value of the meetup is the immediate shared context that participants find when they attend. We achieve this by ensuring that most (if not all) participants are work in product (product owner, manager, directors, etc.).
Depending on the chosen drinks and food provided, costs can vary from 200-400 $ / event. And any leftovers can go to the other and employees!
Like most events, active members of the tech community will learn about you and your culture. Both through a shoutout at the beginning of the meetup and, by hosting us, participants get to have a feel for your office life culture and company culture.
