Our programs
Four ways to sharpen the craft.
A working session, a byline, a stage, a long table. Different ways to share what you know and leave with something you can use.
Working Sessions
- Monthly
- Online
- Counsel only
- Up to 15 people
Bring the problem you are wrestling with. Work it through with product leaders who have faced the same stage, trade-offs and pressure, then leave with sharper options.
Rod and Phil frame the topic, host the conversation and manage the room. Guests may present; the room stays Counsel. A readout goes to the wider Community.

- Substack & email
- Quality over cadence
The decisions, mistakes and turning points that rarely make the conference stage, written by the people who earned the lesson.
After a Working Session, Rod works with the presenter to turn the discussion into an essay under their byline. The member brings the experience. Rampersand helps it travel.

Counsel Dinners
- By invitation
- Counsel only
- Melbourne & Sydney
A dozen seats.
One good question.
Rod sets the question. The conversation takes it from there. Intimate, off the record and rotating between Melbourne and Sydney, with the time to get past the easy answers.
Nothing to book. Nothing to share afterwards.

The programs make the room.
The people make it matter.
Counsel membership is by referral and a vouch from someone already in the room.
