ABOUT BECKY FRENCH

I am a customer-obsessed product management veteran with deep expertise leading global teams to deliver innovative, scalable travel solutions. As a VP of Product Management in the travel industry, I specialize in aligning product vision with business strategy to drive growth, enhance customer experience, and lead organizations through change. My passion lies in identifying opportunities to grow and empower product teams while aligning talent capabilities with strategic business goals. I’ve successfully led multi-national product teams through significant phases of transformation—whether building a new product organization, scaling operations during high-growth phases, or executing seamless global transitions that meet cost objectives without sacrificing delivery or morale. One notable achievement includes implementing a formalized product sunset program that freed up 25% of investment capacity—funding an innovation program that unlocked new growth opportunities. My leadership approach is rooted in transparency, collaboration, and trust, ensuring that teams are not only aligned with the company’s vision and executing sound product management disciplines but also feel valued and empowered in their roles. Highlights include securing $20M in funding by leading the development of a new product strategy—launching a modern platform from the ground up—and driving a $233M, 10-year product deal through executive presentations and customer workshops. Key strengths: • Driving customer-centric product strategies grounded in market research • Building and evolving high-performing, collaborative product teams • Leading through change with a focus on employee satisfaction and retention • Instilling product management discipline to maximize ROI and strategic impact • Navigating matrixed organizations with ease, fostering alignment across global stakeholders • Promoting a culture of innovation, ownership, and continuous growth Having lived and worked abroad, I bring a global mindset to every challenge. Whether forming new teams, scaling capabilities, or leading realignment, I approach each opportunity with a commitment to long-range vision balanced by strategic execution. Above all, I believe leadership is about building relationships based on trust and respect—because great teams create great outcomes. Now, I’m channeling this experience into consulting and advisory roles—partnering with organizations to shape and execute product strategies that accelerate growth and innovation.
