Product Leaders: Do any of these describe your Product Team?

Being a Product Leader can be challenging, whether you’re with a small start-up or a global enterprise. Just when you’ve “gotten it right”, there is a new acquisition to deal with, you hire more product managers, or your competition pivots and now everyone is scrambling. More often than not, Products Leaders are dealing with feelings like these:

  • Our company doesn’t seem to be building products customer cannot live without.
  • We don’t know how to structure our product teams to be successful after a recent acquisition.
  • There is friction between Product Management and Engineering when prioritizing & delivering our products.
  • Our company has been slow embracing digital transformation.
  • PMs are always on the job market. How can I keep them here?
  • I spend more time doing reactive tasks than proactive strategy
  • My company is not product-led and it shows in our bottom line.
  • My Product Managers aren’t at a consistent minimum competency level to be effective.
  • The company’s strategy is a constantly moving target, and it isn’t well thought-out.

Did you know that Ineffective Product Management can threaten your digital transformation?

Product teams face unique challenges that can lead to:

1 in 3 Failed product launches
30% Lost engineering throughput
