Giff Constable

I’ve spent 25 years building new companies and new products as a founder, CEO, product leader, advisor and investment banker.

My award-winning books are used by entrepreneurs and innovation teams around the world to improve how they learn from customers and vet their ideas.

After spending a few years turning around a fintech startup as the head of product and engineering, I’ve returned to the world of consulting while I work on a new effort, The Optionality Project.

Consulting

Whether you are with a large company or a startup, if you are interested in taking your product or innovation teams to the next level, I would be happy to talk with you. In addition to being an operator myself over the years, I've run workshops and led coaching engagements at companies like the Mayo Clinic, American Express, Hearst, Time Inc, and many more. Here's more about me.

Most companies are struggling to figure out how agile engineering, product strategy and design thinking can and should align and come together. This gets even harder when you are applying it to the creation and valiation of new business opportunities.
