I’m Rashad Tantawy, a Senior Product Manager, Product Management instructor, mentor, and business professional with more than 10 years of experience in software products, Product Management, Product Strategy, Agile, and cross-functional product development.

My goal as an instructor is simple: make Product Management and Agile practical, applicable, and connected to real business challenges.

I hold an MBA in Strategic Management and professional certifications including SAFe Practice Consultant (SPC), SAFe Product Owner/Product Manager (POPM), Certified Scrum Product Owner (CSPO), and PMI Agile Certified Practitioner (PMI-ACP).

Throughout my career, I’ve also mentored and supported career shifters, aspiring Product Managers, and Product Owners, helping them build practical Product Management skills, prepare for Product roles, and navigate their transition into the Product Management industry.

This mentoring experience has strongly influenced the way I teach. I understand the difference between learning Product Management concepts and becoming capable of applying them in a real Product role.

That’s why my courses go beyond frameworks and definitions.

My teaching connects Product Management, Agile, and Business Strategy with real workplace challenges, understanding customers, discovering the right problems, prioritizing opportunities, managing stakeholders, collaborating with Agile teams, building product roadmaps, and turning strategy into execution.

My areas of teaching and expertise include:

Product Management • Product Strategy • Product Discovery • Product Ownership • SAFe Agile • Agile Product Management • Product Roadmaps • Prioritization • Stakeholder Management • Customer Discovery • Product Development • Business Strategy • Product Leadership • Lean-Agile • Product Management Career Development

Throughout my experience, one lesson has remained consistent:

Strong Product Managers aren't defined by how many frameworks they know. They're defined by how well they think and make decisions.

It’s about asking better questions, understanding customers, evaluating opportunities, making trade-offs, influencing stakeholders, and connecting Product Strategy with Business Strategy.

That philosophy shapes the way I teach.

My courses are designed for aspiring Product Managers, career shifters, Product Owners, experienced Product Managers, Business Analysts, Scrum Masters, Agile practitioners, software professionals, and professionals working in SAFe environments.

Whether you want to start a career in Product Management, transition into a Product role, become a stronger Product Owner, develop your Product Strategy skills, understand SAFe Agile, or connect Product Management with Business Strategy, my courses are designed to give you knowledge you can actually apply.

Learn the frameworks. Build the mindset. Apply it in the real world.
