| Create Presentations That Wow: The 2-Step AI Workflow | 14 Oct 2025 | 00:08:57 | |
You know the feeling - you’ve been asked to create a presentation for a conference or a customer meeting, and you find yourself frozen, staring at a blank slide. The ideas are in your head, but getting them into a story and a deck that resonates is frustrating and time-consuming. In episode two of The Vibe PM, Dave Killeen, Field CPO EMEA at Pendo reveals his two-part AI workflow for creating memorable presentations, including the one he gave at ProductCon London in early 2025. First, Dave shows how to use the power of voice to turn brain dumps into structured, story-driven speaker notes. Second, Dave demonstrates how to transform those speaker notes into on-brand, professional slides using Gamma, one of Dave’s favorite AI presentation tools. And when the presentation is done, Dave shares a bonus tip for using these tools to really connect with the audience. At the heart of it, AI isn’t here to replace your creativity - rather, it amplifies it. These tools don't write the story for you; they handle the time-consuming parts so you’re free to do the real work - thinking deeply about your message, your audience, and the impact you want to make. Chapters: 00:00 Intro: Why decks kill PM productivity 01:16 Step 1: The "Magic Word" brain dump (voice → Claude) 03:35 Step 2: Gamma.app turns notes into branded slides 05:35 Advanced prompt hack for diverse, bias-free images 07:02 The Golden Asset (spoiler: it's not the deck) 08:13 Wrap: From one conversation to infinite assets Tools Mentioned:

| Go From a Good PM to a Great PM with Better Prompts | 11 Nov 2025 | 00:09:27 | |
Here's the uncomfortable truth: if you're getting mediocre output from AI, it may not be the technology; it may be you. In this episode of The Vibe PM, Dave Killeen demos how to switch up that dynamic using the Claude Console's Prompt Improver - a tool that transforms your vanilla AI prompts into detailed, results-oriented prompts that actually get you strategic, usable results faster. This takes practice, but once you begin focusing on the prompt, you’ll achieve dramatically better results with your work, helping you transition from a good PM to a great one. Chapters:

| Context Pulling: The PM Productivity Hack | 28 Oct 2025 | 00:06:39 | |
Are you struggling to bring your product idea to life? What about the speed in which it takes you to complete your discovery and validation cycles? Yeah, the frustration is real. Here's the thing: If you’re using an LLM to flesh out your ideas, you've been doing it backwards. In this episode, Pendo Field CPO, EMEA, Dave Killeen, introduces context pulling - a method that flips traditional AI prompting on its head. Instead of struggling to get anything useful out of the AI with the context you're providing, you engineer the AI to actively pull the context it needs from you. It then turns your idea into a spec'd, flow-mapped, demo-ready prototype faster than you thought possible. This isn't theory. Dave walks you through the exact prompt, the magic commands that generate instant assets, and why answering AI questions with voice mode is the secret weapon most PMs are missing out on. Chapters:

Dave’s Prompt for Context Pulling You are an AI agent with extensive experience in product building, product management, and product design. You excel at taking requirements and generating clear scopes, creating user flows and detailed key screen specifications. When presented with a product idea or feature, your task is to act as a product manager and designer to help refine and develop the concept into a detailed requirements document for AI-powered coding platforms. Proceed through these steps: CLARIFYING QUESTIONS After receiving a product idea, generate 8-10 important questions as a product manager to understand the requirements better. Present these in a numbered list. SPEC DOC When user says "spec doc", analyze previous responses to generate a product spec for so that we're in a position to design the flows after this, including:
DESIGN FLOWS When user says "design flows", create detailed user flows and screen specifications. For each screen:
PRD When the users says “create PRD”, create a detailed PRD that would be in enough detail for a squad to be able to pick up and run with. After each of the above steps, include:

| Build an AI Prompt-Based App for Career Growth | 25 Nov 2025 | 00:10:47 | |
What if you could advance your career by building an entire application—complete with multiple modes, persistent memory, and personalized intelligence—using nothing but your voice in natural language? No code. No developers. Just words. Most teams are still treating AI like a search bar: ask a question, get an answer, start over. They're missing the bigger opportunity entirely. In this episode of The Vibe PM, Pendo Field CPO EMEA Dave Killeen demonstrates how to shift from transactional prompting to building prompt-based applications—sophisticated tools that remember context, ask intelligent questions, and compound value over time. Dave's example: building a multi-mode AI Career Coach live on the show. This isn't a chatbot, it's a prompt-based application architecture designed in minutes that handles weekly check-in summaries, monthly reflections, promotion readiness assessments, and executive report generation. The methodology is refreshingly simple: prompt the AI to serve as your personal career coach, asking you the right work value questions, load job-related context once, and consistently return to the same work value conversation throughout the year.

| How to Build Personal Knowledge and Operating Systems with AI | 30 Jan 2026 | 00:11:22 | |
Most of us have scattered notes, ideas, and reference articles - some on sticky notes, others in Google docs, but this isn’t an adequate system. That’s where a Personal Knowledge Management (PKM) system is valuable. A PKM system collects, organizes, and retrieves information, turning it into usable, compounded knowledge. But knowledge without action will not lead to future success. You need a Personal Operating System (POS) for managing how you work - your daily routines, goals, priorities, tasks, and career growth. The two systems work together. Your PKM stores what you know, and your POS uses that knowledge to run your day, your week, your quarter, effectively. Until recently, building both systems required massive manual discipline. AI changes that. With AI tools, you can now turn scattered information into a coherent PKM and use it to build a POS that gets smarter every single day. In this episode, Pendo Field CPO EMEA Dave Killeen shows you how to build both systems, no coding required. Using Claude and Cursor, he built both systems that learns through compound engineering, where every interaction makes the system exponentially smarter. On Day One, the AI output is generic, but by Day 30, it has learned how you operate, what you care about, and how to keep you focused. Dave's giving you the Starter Kit below. Just clone the repo, follow the prompts, and the system begins building its structure for your role in minutes. Chapters:

| The Next Level of Vibe Coding is with Parallel Agents | 13 Jan 2026 | 00:13:52 | |
You've built your app's foundation in Lovable or AI Studio, and suddenly, you have multiple feature ideas flooding your brain. You likely jump into a sequential chat-based coding app to start building all these ideas, and you realize it feels painfully slow. You request a feature. You wait. It builds. You request another. You wait. It builds. Repeat. It's just become too slow. In this episode of The Vibe PM, Pendo Field CPO EMEA Dave Killeen shows you how to move beyond sequential building to rapid iteration using parallel agents. Dave demos the exact workflow for working with parallel agents to vibe code faster. Dave suggests starting with Lovable or Google AI Studio to get your app foundation set. Then you can explore ideas using tools such as GitHub and Cursor, and when you’re ready, fire up multiple agents simultaneously, each working on different features at the same time. The pace of progress becomes fundamentally different, which Dave calls "lightning pace" vibe coding. So what did Dave build with his parallel agents? He built a KPI Driver Tree app in two hours on a plane. He was inspired after reading an Atlassian stat that only 12% of PMs feel connected to business outcomes. The app maps company metrics to north star outcomes, helps teams understand how their work connects to board-level dollars , and includes a feature that critiques its own strategy. This episode isn't about the KPI tree itself - it's about showing you what becomes possible when you stop waiting for one AI agent to finish before starting the next idea. Chapters:

| The AI Resume Builder Using Burger Prompts | 18 Dec 2025 | 00:10:58 | |
You know the feeling. You open that resume you haven't touched in months or years, stare at it, and think: "How do I describe what I’ve accomplished? How do I describe that project? How do I quantify the impact I’ve made?" Here's the brutal truth: we're terrible at remembering our own achievements. We actually do amazing work, but when it's time to write it down, our minds go blank. Then we ask ourselves: How can AI help make my resume better? How can AI help my LinkedIn profile better? The big idea today, though, isn't actually about the resume. In this episode, Pendo Field CPO EMEA Dave Killeen shows you the power of “burger prompting” in the LLM. It’s time to move from the old way of LLM prompting, where you're guessing what context the AI needs. Instead, you’ll learn how to build and improve prompts so the AI extracts the information it needs from you to create a usable output. Dave demonstrates this through six-phase structured prompt that instructs the AI to conduct a structured interview to surface your brilliance and specific achievements so you can have an outstanding resume.

| Get More Out of Your AI Workflows with MCPs | 13 Mar 2026 | 00:07:21 | |
Model Context Protocol (MCP) is becoming one of the most important tools for getting more value from AI workflows. In this episode, Pendo Field CPO, EMEA Dave Killeen explains what MCP is, why it matters, and how it helps organizations turn their scattered, siloed data into synthesized, useful insights that no single tool could offer on its own. MCPs connect your AI assistant to multiple tools and data sources, so instead of jumping between dashboards, you can ask questions in natural language and get answers you really need. There are several MCPs available, and in this episode, Dave Killeen walks through four real-world scenarios using Pendo’s MCP to demonstrate the value MCPs have on a PM's day-to-day work. Chapters:
