How To Shift from Project to Product at the Portfolio level - A Scrum.org Community Q&A Podcast
The project-to-product shift starts at the team level but only truly lands when the portfolio follows. A roadmap for making it happen at the funding and governance level.
A major focus for me these days is helping Leaders who set out to shift their organizations from a project to a product mindset figure out how to scale product orientation to a multi-product environment. They want to apply product thinking to their strategic initiatives that cut across products and beyond the product organization.
This is what we refer to as Product Portfolio Management.
A few weeks ago, I joined Dave West and Darrell Fernandes on the Scrum.org Community Podcast to help answer key questions about Agile product portfolio management from a recent webinar.
In the conversation we:
Chart a path toward a product-oriented portfolio operating model (What I also explore in the Product Portfolio Agility Trail Map)
Discuss the shifting role of quarterly business reviews
Explore aligning initiatives with strategic goals
Talk about how to leverage Kanban and Evidence-Based Management to manage and steer your strategic investments.
Listen to the Podcast (and stay tuned for Part 2!)
