About Courtney Dorward
Founder at ProductPlaybook.com.au
As a seasoned Product Leader with a decade of industry experience, I bring an extensive array of skills to the table, encompassing product strategy, product management, and a people-first approach to drive growth and impact. My areas of expertise center on the deployment of Kano, Agile, and Double Diamond methodologies to comprehend customer needs, craft novel products, and yield substantive outcomes.
I have a verified record of success in leading cross-functional teams, executing product roadmaps, and catalysing business results. My experience in creating and launching new products, features, and services, combined with my adeptness at communicating and collaborating with stakeholders, have been honed through years of practice.
With a thorough understanding of user-centered design principles, I use both empathy and data to make informed product decisions that generate value for both customers and the business. My solid background in Agile methodology and project management allows me to strike a delicate balance between the needs of customers, stakeholders, and the bottom line to ensure success.
If you seek a Product Leader who can bring a human-centered perspective, steer product strategy, and manage cross-functional teams to attain exceptional outcomes, I would be delighted.

What mentees say
“I had a great session with Courtney. He was very approachable, insightful and immediately tried to help me. He also provided a useful framework for job interviews. Highly recommend!”
“I took a load away from my session with Courtney about running my own design business. He had amazing and extremely personalised tips from his experience with his 10+ year design agency. I feel like I got a million bucks worth of resources for free! Would 1000% book another session.”
“I had the most amazing experience chatting with Courtney. The session was packed with gems of wisdom, and I learnt so many new ways of thinking about products and customer experiences. Looking forward to speaking with him again. Best, Riya”
