Most Product Owner training teaches backlog management that works perfectly in startups and falls apart in enterprise politics. This course is built for modern leaders who must navigate complex stakeholder landscapes, legacy systems, andcorporate strategy while delivering customer value.

We focus on connecting strategy to execution, driving business impact, and leading adaptive teams inside Australasia’s largest enterprises. You will learn from senior practitioners who have led product ownership inside complex organisations, not trainers who have only managed small teams. Over two intensive days, you will master the thinking, tools, and techniques needed to lead as an effective Product Owner, Delivery Lead, or Value Stream Owner.
