Product Leadership: Transform Conflict into Trust and Teamwork

Keith Cowing

What you'll learn

Define the jobs to be done

List activities, artifacts, and decisions across the product lifecycle that need clear ownership.

Remove gaps and reduce overlap

How to conduct a productive working session with other functions to clarify ownership and reduce gaps and redundancies.

Make changes, with broad support

Implement new procedures that relieve tension across teams, with the support of your toughest stakeholders.

Why this topic matters

Tension often stems from unclear ownership between your team and other functions. It’s amazing how much faster teams move after a focused working session on roles and responsibilities. You’ll likely find agreement on 80% of the items, allowing you to focus on the 20% causing real pain. I regularly help CPOs and CEOs eliminate this friction, now it’s your turn.
