Background

About Ruth Wassermann

Great products shape great businesses - I work with brands to shape both. I’m a board-level design and product strategist with deep experience across VC-backed scale-ups, growth-stage founder-led brands, and global PLCs. I’ve built and led design, product, ESG, and commercial strategy functions that unlock clarity and drive long-term success. The value I bring is in bridging creative instinct with data and insight to transform complex inputs into clear, strategic action. Whether shaping new product ecosystems, reframing strategy for sustainability, or supporting executive teams through transformation, I create narrative clarity that aligns teams and accelerates progress. I’m especially drawn to cross-disciplinary projects where systems thinking, regenerative design, and long-range brand strategy meet. From leading innovation sprints to shaping product roadmaps and their go-to-market plans, I help teams uncover what’s possible. And how to bring it to life. Named in Marketing Week’s Top 50 CX professionals and Creative Pool’s Top 100 influencers, I’ve judged and won multiple industry awards, spoken internationally, and been featured across press and broadcast media.
