In this episode of Founders, Future, host Jay Encarnacion sits down with David Fradin, founder of Spice Catalyst and veteran product leader behind Apple’s first PC hard drive and HP’s golden era. With 47 years of experience, David reveals how his "SPICE" framework (Strategy, Processes, Information, Customer Understanding, and Employee Competencies) tackles the trillion-dollar problem of product failure—35% of new products flop annually. He shares how Spice Catalyst’s training and consulting empower companies like Cisco and Capital One to build "insanely great products," while debunking myths about product management (hint: it’s not project management).
David also discusses his global impact—from transforming product education in India to nearly having his book adopted across Chinese schools—and his crusade to rebrand "Product Managers" as "Product Success Managers." He emphasizes values-driven leadership (learned from HP and Apple) as the bedrock of long-term growth and why granular customer insights—not just "jobs to be done"—are the key to product-market fit.
