How AI changes the Product Operating Model
Aggregating requests. Spinning up roadmaps. Writing PRDs. Marcus Castenfors argues that if AI can do that work in seconds, it was never the job. Join him and Axel Sooriah for a session on what AI exposes about product teams, and what the work looks like now.
Somewhere in your organization, a leader has told teams to go build "AI capabilities", whatever that means. What’s uncomfortable is that nobody in that meeting asked what problem it would solve.
The harsh reality is that if you're just using AI to build more stakeholder-infused features, you're going to lose. Winning in the future of product management is about understanding where AI adds value and where it doesn't. Instead of outsourcing our brains to AI, we need to be sharper thinkers, collaborators but most importantly builders.
Marcus Castenfors coaches leadership teams to shift their operating models toward being more product-centric and to leverage AI without falling into the traps above. Axel Sooriah brings the Atlassian product discovery view.
During this webinar Marcus and Axel will cover how to:
- Recognize when the ask for "AI capabilities" is a solution in search of a problem, and reframe the conversation with your leadership around problems worth solving instead.
- Spot the most common traps teams fall into when bringing AI into your work, and know how to avoid them.
- Name the product management theater in your own way of working, see which parts of the PM job AI is about to expose, and know which skills to build to keep creating products that win.
