My Story

Hi there, I'm Taghi! Thanks for dropping by.

I'm the founder of The Uplift Academy and a passionate product and leadership agility coach with a knack for transforming product leaders into champions of customer-centric empirical value delivery.

In the past 20+ years, my journey has taken me through the trenches of working with and for a multitude of product organisations, from tech startups to Fortune 100 companies, spanning roles from engineering to product leadership, board member to founder, practitioner to consultant.  Along the way, I've coached, consulted, trained, and certified over 5000 product leaders.

Whether it's coaching executives, partnering with leaders, mentoring product teams, or creating content and podcasts, I love helping leaders reduce the distance between ideating and learning and value delivery.

Some of the companies I've served and supported to transform are: Microsoft, Siemens, Bosch, Infineon Technologies, DocuWare, Siemens Mobility, T-Systems

In addition to creating content for you, I currently split my time over:

  • Coaching, mentoring, and consulting CPOs, CEOs, and senior product leaders.

  • Training product professionals: As a Certified Scrum Trainer®, I offer live (online and in-person) Certified Scrum Product Owner®Certified ScrumMaster® , AI for Product Owners, and a few other trainings.

  • I run a podcast on all things related to "Agility" with fireside chats with pioneers and iconic figures in the industry as well as practicing product leaders.

  • I curate exclusive, self-paced online masterclasses delivered by pioneers and iconic figures in the industry. These masterclasses are offered through “The Uplift Academy

I'm also the founder of The Uplift Academy and the founder of Agile Munich, an independent public community of practice, one of the largest communities of its kind in Europe, currently with over 3000 members.
