Sometimes you just need a list. No commentary, no context – just the key things to do and when to do them. This checklist is exactly that: a practical breakdown of your first 100 days as CPO, distilled into focused, actionable steps. 

It’s based on our full playbook, but it’s made to live on your desk, in your notebook, or wherever you do your planning. Think of it as a sanity check: Are you building momentum? Are you winning trust? Are you actually moving the needle where it counts? 

The checklist is split into three time blocks – 30, 60, and 90 days – and covers what to tackle across strategy, people, sourcing, relationships, and risk. It’s fast to use, easy to share, and built for real-world pressure. 

If you’re tired of vague advice and just want to know where to start, this is it.
