We'll follow the Land O'Lakes journey from a more traditional, Project-centric organization to one that is designed around continuously-funded Product teams working directly with the business. This case study explores the transformational journey and how our Product and Capability teams are building trust with our business. We'll talk through:
• Aligning the business to the approach and being deliberate about handling change management (Agile training)
• Talent management and the gaps many organizations face (Employee background, experience and interest)
• Financial management and the implications of such an organizational change
• Application ownership and the impact on portfolio management and rationalization efforts
