[00:00:00] Hi there, Yuval here. If you’re a product leader considering applying a product operating model,

[00:00:05] you’re in the right place. What I’ll try to do in this private podcast series is to help you

[00:00:12] navigate the product operating model landscape. Product operating model is all the buzz these days.

[00:00:20] It competes with AI transformation for being the thing that you try to sell product leaders or CIOs

[00:00:27] on. But what’s really behind all of the buzz? Is it really a dramatic new change? What does it

[00:00:34] mean? How is it different than all of the investments you have already made in your product

[00:00:39] organization and in agile transformation? Why is this even? What’s behind the rise of the popularity

[00:00:49] of product thinking? How is the product operating model different than being a product leader

[00:00:55] organization or product-led growth? When does it make sense for you as a product leader or technology

[00:01:01] leader to consider applying this model or taking ideas from it into your organization? Those are all

[00:01:08] topics that will explore in this podcast series. The purpose here is not to go too deep into the

[00:01:16] theory, not to tell you everything that you could possibly know about a product operating model,

[00:01:23] but to give you a perspective that helps you think about what actionable steps you can take

[00:01:29] towards being more product-oriented as a product technology leader. In this first episode,

[00:01:39] what we’ll focus on is why is a product operating model even needed?

Want these ideas applied to your organization?
