Deep dives
Understanding True Product Orientation
True product orientation involves a genuine shift in how organizations view and define their products, moving beyond superficial changes such as simply relabeling roles or structures. Many organizations fall into the trap of creating 'fake products' by focusing on specific internal components, such as backend systems or APIs, which do not align with customer needs or offer any direct revenue generation. A true product should provide comprehensive customer-centric features that fulfill a user's needs throughout their journey, rather than being defined by singular technical components. This approach requires a cultural shift within organizations, encouraging cross-functional teams to work collaboratively on shared goals rather than maintaining siloed structures.
