Are You Struggling to Scale Your Organization ? Need agility but dubious of process BS/dogma? I share reflective, pragmatic, principled takes on how to approach scaling your organization leveraging the essence (rather than theater) of product operating models, agile practices and frameworks, and business operating systems such as EOS and OKRs.
RevOps/DevOps/ProdOps/MarOps - Is it time for CompanyOps?
|
I talk quite a bit about the notion of "Developing your company like a product". One of the obstacles I see in the adoption of this concept is that's hard without having the "Developers" and "Product" people that consider the company their product... What I've seen in companies I work with is that there are MANY Ops teams - RevOps, EngOps, ProdOps, DevOps, PeopleOps. Too often these teams are too focused on the respective tools. Worse than that, they are often siloed - optimizing locally for the needs of their function/department. So nobody is positioned to tackle cross-cutting problems. Is it time for Company-level Ops? How are you tackling this gap in your organization? Has anybody created "product teams" to develop the company? Teams that sift through and develop opportunities to leverage transformational capabilities such as GenAI? Teams that work on scaling the company? Really curious what's out there. If you're doing something like this I'd love to hear about what's working and what you've learned. Full transparency - I'd love to be involved in setting up and operating such a capability in an organization that believes in developing itself like a product. If that sounds interesting, let's talk... |

Hi there, After years of listening to podcasts, guest appearances, and co-hosting, I’m finally launching my own show: the Scaling w/ Agility Podcast! . Why?

Hi Reader, Are you a Head of Product, Engineering, Technology, or Transformation? Are you working to evolve your organization from a Product Theater / Feature Factory towards becoming more scalable, outcome-oriented, empowered, and evidence-driven? If that sounds familiar, you’re exactly who I want to hear from. I’m building a new masterclass for leaders like you- those navigating the messy, high-stakes shift from project/feature delivery to true product operating models, often in founder-led...
On Tuesday, driving back from college, my daughter asked me what Agile is. Here’s what it isn’t. It’s planning to record a video podcast while walking around the block and realizing 15 minutes (and a few kilometers) later that the iPhone camera stops recording video when you switch to a different app (Perplexity, let’s say…). Doh Well, it would have been worse if it had been 60 minutes. And it would have been better if I had recorded a minute, then stopped to review the result and adjust...
