In this episode, we dive into the CAF Product Framework, a model designed to bring clarity, alignment, and focus to product management. Created after extensive experience mentoring product managers, the framework helps tackle common challenges such as prioritizing features, managing sprints, and creating impactful roadmaps while reducing chaos. The CAF framework is structured as a pyramid of five layers, each building on the one above to guide decision-making and organizational efficiency.

Key Topics Covered:

Introduction to the CAF Framework:

Addresses common product management pain points: feature prioritization, sprint management, and chaos reduction.

The Mission: Anchors product managers by connecting to the company's overarching purpose.

Encourages clear prioritization and reduces noise in daily operations.

Success requires buy-in from teams and managers.
