Warning: there is no AI in this talk. Just myth-busting about the Product Operating Model.
Come learn about the approach behind how companies like Netflix, Amazon, and Apple are said to build products, and whether it belongs in your organization or is just the next "Agile" thing.
What is the model actually made of? Does any of it apply to your team, or does it only work if you are already a company like those? What changes about how you work day-to-day, and how much of it are you already doing under a different name?
We will put the model next to Scrum, sort the real differences from the repackaged ones, and look at where you can start without waiting for a reorganization.
