Operational Governance is the connective tissue of your product development regime
Not the products themselves, nor the business strategy that determines what products should be brought to market. Operational Governance is optimization of the factory that converts that strategy from an idea in your imagination to a product in the marketplace.
A few key attributes:
Strategic Cohesion: Whatever your corporate strategy may be, it must be clearly and concisely articulated down through the org. Establish clear channels and KPIs to track our performance against that strategy
Demand Management: Clear, fair, and transparent processes leveraged to decide which ideas are worthy of the investment, and why
Iterative Development: Marketplace velocity demands modes of development that are flexible and endowed by real-world feedback along the way. The Big Bang launch is dead
Jurisdictional Authority: Reporting lines and approval authority must be clearly defined and policed. Everyone needs to swim in their own lane
Operational Debt Management: Every company accrues operational debt along the way, and experiences it as drag on innovation. Keep that debt on the radar and always be angling for opportunities to shave it down.
Better ideas are always welcome. But even the best ideas won't earn you a dime unless you can execute against them. Operational Governance represents architecture and maintenance of the structures through which your company processes ideas into profit.
