Going Beyond Features

How your value delivery system enables you to thrive

It’s time to shake things up! Listen to an insightful chat with Gil Broza

How to break silos, foster creativity, and enhance value delivery.

This conversation is GOLD!

It was outstanding—roughly 50 minutes of a valuable lesson - Link in the comments.

A few key links:

Here are the main takeaways

1. Embrace Flexibility

Avoid prescriptive rules that limit creativity and flexibility in getting things done. That will cripple your chances of driving REAL value.

2. Simplify Complex Processes

When everyone tries to complicate things, come in and kick things out!

You will benefit from simplifying what gets unintentionally too complicated.

3. Foster Cross-Department Collaboration

Encourage seamless integration between product, engineering, and business teams to improve communication and execution.

When you collaborate, everyone wins.

4. Value People Over Processes

Focus on leveraging your team member’s strengths and skills rather than sticking to nonsense processes.

Don’t ever call people RESOURCES!

That’s not how we want to treat each other.

5. Develop a Holistic Value Delivery System

Understand the big picture. Know how the organization collaborates to create value and how decisions impact different teams.

6. Lead Proactively for Continuous Improvement

Shift from reacting to problems to proactively improving how you work in anticipation of future needs.

Act today for a better tomorrow!

7. Customize Processes to Fit Team Needs

Don’t let frameworks limit how you work. You may start with them, but don’t let them block you. Do what is necessary, not what’s easy.

My final thought, a rather obvious one:

To get where most teams don't get, you need to do what most teams don't do!

You will benefit a lot from stepping back, understanding your situation, and acting to make it better. Wanna know more about it? Get my book, Untrapping Product Teams
