Hear from product leaders who’ve worked in both environments as they share how they adapt decision-making, team collaboration, and stakeholder alignment to fit the context they’re in.

We’ll also examine the broader state of the product management profession. As demand for PMs grows, so does the need for consistency, clarity, and credibility. What role should our community play in defining standards, certifying skills, and creating reliable career pathways? We'll dig into what's working, what’s missing, and what comes next.
