Craig
Pugsley
I’m a natural-born problem-solver, in love with creating great products and coaching others to do the same. I thrive in early-stage or early-idea organisations looking to deeply understand their users. I love generating innovative concepts, working collaboratively to find viable solutions and creating delightful production-ready designs.
Projects
I work across the entire product creation lifecycle from discovery research through concept generation, execution, rollout, analysis and iteration. I can creatively direct and individually contribute at all stages.

Podcasts
I’m co-host on a podcast series called The Prod Cast where myself and Tom Hazeldine (VP Product Management) discuss the intersection between product design and product management.
There are loads of product management or product design podcasts, but creating stellar product experiences is a team sport and shouldn’t be discussed in isolation.
So we launched our own podcast series, discussing specifically that: how do you get the best out of your teams when they collaborate effectively?
It was a lot of fun! We covered ways of working, a deep-dive into our favourite product creation process and how to hire great talent (super important right now!).
