S4E27 - Leadership buy-in is essential with Lukas Vermeer

Experimentation is a journey, not a destination. Don’t expect to build a culture of experimentation overnight. Cross-functional teams are critical. Breaking down silos and bringing together engineers, product managers, and designers will create a unified vision and drive faster iteration. Leadership buy-in is essential. A top-down approach to embedding experimentation ensures everyone is on board and resources are allocated strategically. Don’t underestimate the importance of organizational rhythms. Establish clear processes and structures to ensure smooth collaboration and avoid friction. Embrace the growing pains. Change is rarely easy. Be prepared for challenges and celebrate milestones along the way.
