You HAVE to do this. The insights are 🔥
Upraised completely shifted my perspective about my career. The conversations with my coach constantly inspired new ways of thinking & gave me the confidence to dream BIG.
Upraised is a quality shortcut for your transition to a product role.
What could've taken me more than a year, with the Upraised, I was able to do it in 4 months.
Best educational investment I ever made
Upraised helped me become a product manager when my MBA degree could not. it is by far the best educational investment I have ever made
No BS. Only Actionable insights that you can apply from tomorrow.
There is no BS. No fake magic sauce. You actually get your hands dirty, and learn along the way. The growth I achieved by getting real time feedback on my work was just phenomenal
Thanks to Upraised I am killing it at my new product role
Got into a product role after a degree in Infrastructure planning
I had almost joined another program, but thank god I learnt about Upraised at the last minute.
The program helped me double down on my strengths & get into my dream role
Ended up bagging more than one product offer
A couple of years into my first job, I knew product management was the right fit for me. I was at Byju's and was fascinated by the work PMs in the company were doing.
At the beginning, there was a lot of doubt. My gut kept telling me, I could be a great PM. Years in sales & program management had taught me valuable lessons around communicating effectively, influencing without authority and having a keen eye for data.
But, I was scared!
Ended up really stepping up my game with Upraised & getting more than one offer
Totally worth the hype
I get so many many messages asking if Upraised is worth the hype. And I always say - TOTALLY.

You cant go wrong with Upraised
You need someone to be with you for the emotional up & downs of a career change. Someone who sticks with you all the way.
Most courses are transactional, there is no personalised attention but I needed someone who could tell me “You can do it”
My coach, counsellors made the tough transition to product possible
Once an Upraiser, Always an Upraiser
I have grown so much with Upraised, first as a student and now as a coach and mentor
I have built a networks of brilliant product folks that is going to be with me for a lifetime
