Teams Struggle to Deliver without Clear, Value-Aligned, Prioritized Backlogs

35%

of delivery failures are directly attributed to a lack of alignment between Strategy and Execution teams (2020, PMI Pulse of the Profession Report)

44%

42%

Our Product Uplift Program is Tailored to Immediately Improve Product Ownership

Being a product owner is a complex job that involves many different responsibilities. Product owners need to deeply understand what customers want, ensure extreme clarity in the backlog, identify the “next most useful increment of value” to build, and ensure Teams are given direct and consistent support to minimize waste and delay. It’s not always easy, but it’s an important job that requires being able to handle challenges and solve problems and our Precision Coaching program is here to help.

The Problem We Solve with Precision Coaching

To achieve product uplift, it’s crucial to involve everyone, not just a select few. By including all stakeholders in the process, we can gather valuable insights and perspectives that can inform product improvements. Additionally, using data and analytics can help identify pain points and areas for improvement.

For example, by analyzing customer feedback and behavior, we can understand which features are most important and prioritize development accordingly. By implementing these strategies, we can drive product uplift and see measurable improvements, with some studies showing improvements in throughput of 10-20% or more with increased predictability.
