As a CPO overseeing 8 departments and 30 teams, I realized I was losing touch with our products and customers. To reconnect, I shifted from one-on-one meetings to attending team demos and modified their format to align with quarterly goals. I streamlined meetings, synchronized sprints, and set dedicated days for demos, enhancing focus and team collaboration. Regular deep dives into key product areas and open communication sessions with the team ensured a comprehensive understanding and alignment with customer needs.
