What if your product teams stopped building noise and started creating value?

That shift means faster shipping.
Customers who care about what gets released.
And no more value stuck in endless backlogs.

I’m Jan, aka Jan Solo.
Ex-cop. Alt-rock addict 🎸.

And a product leader with 10+ years of experience turning decisions into value.

The only coach who’ll drop a ballet pose mid-workshop just to make sure the point sticks.

My roles:

- Interim PO → direction & results from day one
- Coach & sparring partner → feedback & focus
- Workshops & keynotes → bold, actionable

Why me?

Ten years as a cop taught me to spot patterns fast, stay patient, and call out the hard stuff.

I don’t sugarcoat. I say what others dance around.

That’s why my workshops stick long after the slides are gone.

And in the end, I step out so your team can stand on its own. Sharper, faster, independent.

Results clients get from working with me:

→ Product owners who step up strategically.
→ Releases that land with customers.
→ Shorter time-to-value across the board.

📨 Want sharper decisions and products that matter?

DM me or check jansolo.be.
