What's the roadmap for product operations? | Justin Woods and Phil Hornby

In Episode 26, Justin Woods & Phil Hornby reflect on the biggest lessons from Season 2 of Talking Roadmaps as they unpack the evolving role of product operations. From product ops as a “force multiplier” rather than process policing, to balancing standardisation with team autonomy, the discussion explores AI’s impact on product operating models, roadmap governance, tooling, leadership buy-in, and why product ops may become the team that “designs the machine” instead of simply running it. They also preview Season 3’s focus on go-to-market strategy.

Here is an audio-only version if that’s your preferred medium - and you can access it through your favourite podcasting platform if you prefer (Apple, Spotify, Amazon).
