Product teams often obsess over shipping faster — more stories closed, more sprints completed. But speed means nothing if it’s not creating real impact. This talk challenges the glorification of velocity and helps teams refocus on what truly matters: outcomes. We’ll explore how product thinking, customer-centricity, and shared goals with engineering create momentum that’s both meaningful and measurable.
Key Takeaways:
1. Velocity is a tool, not a goal — shipping fast only matters if you’re shipping the “right” things.
2. Outcomes > Output — success is measured by impact on users and business metrics, not just tickets closed.
3. Great Product Teams translate business goals into product bets — and help teams see the “why” behind the work.
4.Slow can be strategic — discovery, iteration, and alignment take time, and that’s a good thing.
5.Build a culture of outcomes — align engineering, design, and product around shared success metrics, not sprint speed.
