Many product organizations invest heavily in defining strategy and designing operating models, yet still struggle to turn strategy into meaningful outcomes. The missing link is often not the model itself, but the organizational maturity and behaviours needed to make it work. This session explores how product organizations mature around their operating model evolving from work-first delivery to outcome-first thinking, from alignment theatre to real autonomy, and from output tracking to evidence-based decision-making. Topics include: - Signals that an operating model looks solid on paper but fails in behaviour - Systems and rituals that actually enable focus, learning, and autonomy - How product ops leaders can actively shape organizational maturity - Practical ways to evolve behaviours without creating bureaucracy The goal is to give attendees realistic guidance on how to evolve their product organization so their strategy has a real chance of succeeding.
