Experts in Residence
Pollen’s Experts-in-Residence possess deep knowledge in their functional areas—and they’re here to share it with you. They’ve been independent for more than a decade, and you’ll find them fielding questions in the community, giving project feedback, and crafting sprints and workshops that empower you to reach your next level.
Pollen’s trove of playbooks are exactly what you need them to be: goal-oriented, practical, and to the point. We’ve stripped out the watered-down advice you’ll find elsewhere in favor of short manuals dedicated to your most pressing pain points and opportunities. Each one highlights the steps you need to take, when you should take them, and most importantly, why they’re worth taking.
Our video library is stocked with actionable takeaways and easy-to-digest insights across a variety of high-level concepts, excerpted from recorded sprints and workshops.
Whether you need a customizable template for better presentations, a workbook to guide your progress through new challenges, or thought-starters for your own client conversations, Pollen’s library of 200+ member-created assets allows you to find what you need—and trust that it works.
