9.COURSE SYLLABUS
At Pragmatic Leaders, you are part of a global family of aspirational professionals who
proactively help each other and are invested in each other's career growth. It has been our
mission from day one to build a strong collaborative, helpful family which supports and
invests in each other. I am proud to share that you are part of a global family now.
We come together every few weeks to engage through our offline and online events to
learn from each other and from the experts in the community.
Pragmatic Leaders functions like your full stack global career accelerator. We have 3 core
pillars.
Pillar one, Educate - We help you to upskill via our proven courses and professional
industry coaches. The courses follow our proven and intense pedagogy that has helped
aspiring professionals score jobs in Fortune 500 companies like Fiserv, Paypal; silicon
valley based startups like CasaOne, Germany's SixT, fast growing Indian startups like
MoveInSync, Exotel, Clinikk and more with up to 300% hike in salary.
Pillar two, Engage - We strongly believe in peer to peer learning and our mission is to
enable it at scale. Hence, at a local level, we conduct events and meetup to help you engage
with your local peers and experts. You will be part of a global community of product
management on slack with access to online & offline meetups.
Pillar three, Employ - Ultimately, your career success is largely determined by the
placements you score. And hence we operate a Job platform and dedicated interview
preparation courses to help you crack your dream job.
These 3 pillars of educate, engage, and employ come together to give you an incredible
career edge that will ensure that you succeed!
In us, you have a friend to discuss your career issues, a senior to find guidance and a
teacher to achieve your goals.
We strongly believe that 3 elements- knowledge, application skills, and experience together
builds the foundation for pragmatism, essential to excel in any sphere in life. With this in
mind, our programs are geared towards providing our students a holistic educational
experience that combines the rigor of traditional and the ease and flexibility of online
schooling. To this end, we devoted ourselves to developing a futuristic, comprehensive and
scientifically backed pedagogy.
With our efforts, we hope to build a “modern workforce” equipped to imagine, build &
govern cutting-edge technology by bringing premium education to the doorstep of every
individual aspiring to up-skill and out-do competition.
This new age, modern workforce could be built through active support provided on our
platform by collaborative & global community of PMs who benefit by connecting &
mentoring one another to solve all the product related queries.
3. OUR PEDAGOGY
Before starting up in 2018, for 6 months, we interviewed 100+ product managers who
were at different stages of their career to identify what separates good from great. We
interacted with 3000 plus students via webinars and offline sessions on product
management which helped us nail down the issues and friction that a learner faces.
In our numerous discussions with the industry, the huge gap between employable and
trained emerged strongly. Having taken all the learning and observations, questioning
every assumption along the way, this course was built from scratch based on a futuristic
and well researched pedagogical method to learn Product Management.
Before you even move onto course overview, take a moment to understand how learning
works. Learning is a process of acquiring competencies and it goes through 4 stages. It is
important to be aware of which stage you are in.
i. 4 Stages of learning
Loosely translates to, “learner is not aware of what s/he doesn't know.'' You may go about
believing that you are competent and know things well, but that competency doesn’t reflect
in the output. Sometimes you blame it on others and sometimes on the situations but you
are just not able to get things going.
Loosely translates to “learner is aware of what s/he doesn't know. '' So, you did some
introspection or a trusted friend gave a piece of his/her mind and you realize your
shortcomings and the gaps that you need to fill. Now you are consciously working towards
removing your incompetencies.
Stage 3 - Stage of Conscious Competence
Loosely translates to “learner is aware of what s/he knows and is somewhat confident of
application”. You have worked towards fixing your gaps and have learnt and practised the
subject matter. So much so that you are aware of your competency but you have to stay
mentally alert to perform the tasks. This is like the early stages of learning maths, where
you have to remember formulas consciously.
Loosely translates to “learner is fully aware of what s/he knows, can apply and has developed
a muscle memory about the subject matter.” i.e. You know you are great and you are in the
zone! You have applied yourself, you have learnt and practiced enough that now it is no
more a conscious effort to recall the formulas or methodologies. They come naturally to
you. For instance, iIn the later stages of learning maths, where the formulas just come
naturally to you, you just have to figure out the logic to solve the problem at hand.
Now bucket yourself in one of these stages. I strongly believe that anyone from stage 1 to
stage 3 is going to benefit from the course tremendously.

8. ALUMNI SPEAKS
“T his course is filled with so many gems backed by logic and reasons to turn an ordinary
product person into an extraordinary pragmatic product leader. Course content is brilliant,
_____________________________________
“I’ve felt very lucky to be part of this course because it’s been providing exactly what it’s
for everything.”
_____________________________________
“I tried a few online courses but there was no hands-on experiences. A friend of mine finally
suggested Pragmatic Leaders where I got introduced to an amazing cohort and more than
awesome mentors. After rigorous training for 4 months, I could finally crack a product
management interview@ MoveInSync where I’m currently working on electric vehicles.
The Course not only instilled the much-needed product sense (which is a must in today’s
digital world), but it also helped me understand user psychology and different business
models around a product. Highly recommend the course for any business guy out there and

“Most often, people like me accidentally land into Product Management and hence it is also
called an accidental profession. If you have landed up as Product Manager or looking
forward to be one, it's a challenging & continuous learning role. There are only two ways to
learn Product Management, by building products & getting groomed by veterans for
challenges, Pragmatic Leaders course by Talvinder Singh wraps both in it! Strongly suggest
this course for all those of you involved in crafting technology products.”

Q: I am a Product Manager with 3 years of experience, will this program benefit me?
Yes, the Bootcamp core course has been designed for existing PMs and product folks
who may have accidentally landed up in their jobs and hence lack clear strong
foundation which may hinder their growth. So, for current PMs our program acts as an
accelerator. It accelerates your learning, your confidence and your prospects. Average
work experience of learners joining the cohort is 8 years.
Q: What is the future of Product Management jobs with automation all around us?
The future is bright. With automation all around us and the immense progress in digital
influence, the benchmark for great product experience is improving at a fast clip. This puts
immense pressure on the industry to hire and train more product managers to keep up
with the demand.
