    Drawing from his 15+ years at Salesforce, Mike shares hard-won frameworks for building product roadmaps that sales can actually sell, developing trust between CROs and CPOs, and scaling alignment across growth stages. This is a blueprint for leaders who want revenue-generating product strategy—not just internal harmony.

    What You’ll Learn:

    • Revenue-Calorie Framework: Why Salesforce prioritized roadmap decisions by “calories” and how to balance innovation vs. renewals.
    • V2MOM as a GTM Operating System: What the V2MOM framework taught Mike about prioritization, transparency, and shared accountability.
    • From Anecdotes to Data: How to structure sales feedback into decision-ready inputs for product teams.
    • Product + Sales = One Team: What world-class collaboration looks like—when sales leaders evangelize the roadmap and product leaders join customer conversations.

    Key Topics:

    • CRO and CPO relationship-building strategies
    • Translating sales objections into roadmap investment
    • The role of customer success in roadmap prioritization
    • Quantifying “deal blockers” to influence product
    • Running effective board conversations around product
    • How “True to the Core” made Salesforce a customer-led company
    • Scaling product-sales collaboration from startup to enterprise
