Product Operating Model accelerator
Get your people and teams ready for a product operating model (POM) with the approach that underpins POM ROI: Team Topologies
Effective execution of Product Operating Model needs end-to-end ownership, no hand-offs, cognitively-scoped boundaries, and self-service platforms. Most workforces have yet to experience and adopt these ways of working.
Team Topologies provides the organizational foundation for effective ways of working for Product Operating Model. Accelerate and sustain a Product Operating Model with Team Topologies.
Ideal for: CPO, CPTO, VP Product, Head of HR
“... product operating models and Team Topologies aren’t separate frameworks competing for attention. They’re two sides of the same coin. You can’t design how products flow through an organization without designing how teams are structured to deliver them.”

Flexible program rollout
The Product Operating Model accelerator from Team Topologies has three components, with each building on the previous:
1 - Content Infrastructure foundation
A package of training licenses, materials, digital whiteboards, guides, playbooks, and more - our Enterprise Transformation Package - provides the alignment and coherence for cross-workforce upskilling and behavioral shifts
2 - Program rollout design + champions uplift
We work with you to design the program rollout, including upskilling for a core group of 8-12 champions within your organization, leading to accelerated and sustained adoption
3 - Partner-based Enablement
One or more accredited Team Topologies partners help to scale the rollout across the organization, tackling skills profiles, team-based ways of working, system architecture changes, metrics, and more
The book Team Topologies was recognized by Book Authority as one of the “Best Product Management Books of All Time,”
The Product Operating Model accelerator from Team Topologies focuses on the difficult “people and process” and organizational architecture aspects of POM adoption.
The patterns, principles, language and techniques from Team Topologies have revolutionized ways of working for organizations globally since 2019. Based on the book Team Topologies by Matthew Skelton and Manuel Pais (2019, 2025) - with over 250k copies sold across 5 languages - the Team Topologies approach is the proven foundation for the declarative, context-rich execution context needed by Product Operating Model.
Product Operating Model accelerator assumes no prior knowledge and gets your workforce up to speed in the timeframe that you need, using a core group of 8-12 “champions” within your organization to spearhead the adoption.
A comprehensive set of ‘content infrastructure’ provides the alignment and coherence you need to effective uplift and changes to workforce behaviors.
Later scale-out is supported and amplified by accredited Team Topologies partners globally.
