How to Build Breakthrough Product Teams
The Innovation Flywheel: curiosity, experimentation, and high agency.
Most teams aren't stuck because they lack talent. They're stuck because they've optimised for compliance over curiosity. The Innovation Flywheel — curiosity → experimentation → learning → agency — is how the best product teams consistently ship work that matters.
Nic draws from his experience building 4 companies and working with teams at every scale. He introduces the concept of T-shaped people, selective agency, and why 'action produces information' — a principle that separates breakthrough teams from stagnant ones.
This keynote includes real stories from Nic's entrepreneurial journey, including how AI is reshaping how teams build products, why the Socratic method beats brainstorming, and what a $1.7M-per-person team (Gamma) can teach us about lean innovation.
