Mastering Organizational Traction Or Portfolio Agility?

Should you focus on mastering organizational traction or on establishing portfolio agility?
Let me tell you a secret: In my experience, mastering organization traction involves realizing you have a portfolio of investments you’re managing.
So actually the paths converge…
The difference is that mastering organizational traction extends beyond the IT/Product world.
It intercepts business initiatives before becoming mandates for the technology organization.
It also manages non-digital developmental work (yes - some of that still exists!)
When people ask me which email course I should take—Mastering Organizational Traction or Product-oriented Portfolio Agility—I ask them about their context.

If they’re a product/tech leader trying to apply a product operating model in a multi-product context - I suggest the Product-Oriented Portfolio Agility Trail Map.
If they’re a chief of staff, CXO, or even a Product/Tech leader trying to work through a scaling up inflection point, Mastering Organization Traction is often a better starting point.
