Mapping for Founders

You've been solving
the wrong problem.

Four hours to find
the right one.

Creating a map of your business or product makes it visible as a system. When everyone's looking at the same thing, the real problem has nowhere to hide.

In four hours, you'll get the diagnostic tool that product leaders rely on so you can find what's actually broken and know exactly what to fix first.

◆ What You'll Learn ◆

Alignment

Get everyone working off the same reality.

You're moving fast, but your team is solving slightly different problems. That drift compounds. The map shows you exactly where it's breaking — and how to fix it without adding layers of process.

Focus

Stop guessing. Start making real progress.

When everything feels urgent, you spread effort across too many fronts. You'll learn a simple way to triage what actually matters — so your team puts real weight behind the few things that move the business.

Clarity

Solve the problem that's actually costing you.

Missed targets, weak hires, stalled features — these are downstream symptoms. You'll learn how to trace issues back to root cause so you stop wasting cycles on fixes that don't stick.

Cohesion

Get your team thinking like a team.

You shouldn't have to repeat yourself in every meeting. Mapping gives you a fast, practical way to build shared understanding — so your team makes better decisions without you in the room.

A lightweight system for applying product thinking to your business.

Four shifts in how you see your business. Each one shows up Monday morning.

◆ Who This Is For ◆

Orgs running fast on incomplete knowledge.

You're moving fast. You have a product to build, a team to keep aligned, and decisions coming at you from every direction.

You don't always have a clear picture of what's actually happening. Nobody does. That's not a failure of leadership. It's what early stage looks like.

This workshop is for founders who are ready to stop reacting and start seeing the whole system. Whether you're here solo or with a cofounder or a key hire, you'll leave with a map of your most pressing problem and a clear sense of what to do next.

You can feel the drift.

Different people are solving slightly different problems and it's starting to compound.

Everything feels urgent.

You're fire-fighting, not prioritizing, and the same fires keep restarting.

Decisions don't stick.

You re-litigate the same call across meetings and weeks.

You're curious and coachable.

Ready to challenge the assumptions you hold about how your org works. Ready to make real change.

◆ What you'll walk away with ◆

A map of a real problem. Action items you can tackle on Monday.

You've been feeling the friction. You just haven't been able to put your finger on it. By the end of the session, you'll have it named, mapped, and traced back to root cause — with a short list of moves to address it. Not the symptom. The thing.

A drawn map of your business

The parts, the connections, the gaps — visible for the first time.

A circled friction point

The one thing actually costing you, traced to its root — not its symptoms.

A short list of next moves

Prioritized action items so you stop fixing the wrong things.

A repeatable practice

A mapping method you can run with your team next week, without a facilitator.

◆ About your Trainers ◆

Two operators. Decades of experience with founders.

Rosemary King

Founding Principal, King Catalyst

Rosemary King has spent 20+ years inside product teams at Spotify, Mind the Product, Pivotal Labs, Dext, and beyond — building, scaling, and diagnosing what's actually going wrong. She now runs King Catalyst, working with founders and product leaders on the decisions that don't have easy answers. She built the curriculum used by thousands of PMs at General Assembly. The Mapping Workshop is the distillation of what she's seen work when developing strategy at early stage companies.

Chris Brereton

Fractional Product & Ops Leader
