When the Product Becomes the Problem
Your product portfolio grew faster than your organization could manage.
Learn how to diagnose the sprawl, retire what's holding you back, and prevent complexity from coming back.
One registration. All three webinars on demand.
Three sessions. One portfolio turnaround.
No company decides to have a sprawling product portfolio. It accumulates — one exception, one special, one customer promise at a time — until every function is managing a different version of the truth. This series covers the full arc: recognizing the symptoms, clearing out the legacy that blocks progress, and building the discipline that keeps the portfolio healthy.
Diagnose
When the Product Becomes the Problem
An unstructured portfolio rarely announces itself. It shows up as missed launch dates, eroding margins, and functions that can't agree on what a product even is. This session covers the critical challenges of managing an unstructured portfolio and the strategic steps to consolidate and simplify what you offer.
- The symptoms of portfolio sprawl, and which function feels them first
- Strategic steps to consolidate and simplify your offering
- How to build a culture of seamless integration across functions
Phase out
Completing the Modular Journey: Phasing Out Old Products for Good
Most modularization programmes stall in the same place. The new architecture ships, the old products never die, and the business ends up paying for both. This session covers why legacy products persist and how to get past the roadblocks keeping them alive.
- Why legacy products survive long past their business case
- The organizational and data roadblocks that stall phase-outs
- Actionable strategies to accelerate your modular transformation
Sustain
The Power of Product Management: Turning Complexity into Profit
A modular platform doesn't produce profit on its own — product management does. This session covers how a strategic product management function turns a modular architecture into a growth engine that keeps delivering after the project team disbands.
- Profit analysis of modular products, including indirect cost allocation
- Cross-functional roadmap management for continuous profitability
- One-touch configuration for a seamless sales-to-delivery flow
Concrete tools, not just concepts
A symptom checklist
A practical way to recognize where portfolio sprawl is already costing you, and which parts of the business are absorbing it quietly.
A profitability view
Techniques for allocating direct and indirect cost to modular products, so portfolio decisions rest on real numbers rather than instinct.
A phase-out playbook
The roadblocks that stall legacy retirement, and the sequence that gets a phase-out over the line instead of half-done.
A sustaining discipline
What product management has to own — roadmaps, configuration, profit tracking — for the gains to hold beyond the first year.
