Ashton Slatev

I mentor aspiring and early-career product managers to identify, interview for, and thrive in their ideal product roles.

Whether you're just populating your product management toolbox or sharpening the proverbial saw, my mentorship comes with a healthy dose of accountability to make sure you're setting ambitious goals and meeting them. Together we'll identify your top goals and, like the true product managers we are, build the roadmap to get there.

Interviewing? Let's do mock-interviews and review how you do. As a hiring manager, I'll tell you what I'm looking for with each question and where I typically see product managers trip up.

Optimizing for pay? Great, let's talk about high-visibility-to-effort tasks and do mock salary negotiations.

Want to improve operationally? Absolutely, let's talk about the needs of your team(s) and tailor processes accordingly. Also I'm an absolute geek when it comes to efficiency hacks.

Looking to move from operational to strategic product management? Awesome, let's practice strategic thinking, identify opportunities in your current role for you to take on more responsibility, and blow your boss away!

Here's what some of my past team members have said about working with me:

"Ashton is a brilliant Product Lead who really understands how to get the best out of people. I was blessed to report to Ashton and to work closely on building data products for 12 months at scoutbee."

"Ashton is a great manager and mentor who supported my professional growth and development."
