Full PDP Assessment
Strengthen Your Teams
Your teams may be used to your PDP, but if you haven't done a full assessment before, there may be gaps you weren't aware of. A diagnostic alongside our experts will connect them more closely with the process for upcoming projects.
Keep What's Working
You won't need to replace your entire PDP. You show us which pieces are working for you, and we'll uncover how to supercharge them to run even better.
Empower Your Groups
Our process of confidential interviews encourages your team to be transparent about their readiness to change. You may be surprised by how willing they are to try new things if they eliminate their pain points.
Eliminate Friction
We will give you actionable guidance on the steps to take that will make the biggest improvements in your team's performance — and how to clearly communicate this plan to gain broad acceptance of your PDP across your organization.
We do all of this in ways that reinforce your position as an effective product development leader who is always looking to strengthen your PDP across the organization.
The Founder & CEO of the Institute: Katherine Radeka
Katherine Radeka has deep experience getting physical product teams unstuck. In 2015, she began to see an increase in the misuse of Agile Software Development practices by hardware teams. She undertook a series of projects she came to call “Agile Rescue Missions” because of the urgency to take action to get teams unstuck.
Since then she’s led over a dozen of these projects for leading companies around the world, most of whom have transitioned rapidly to full adoption of Rapid Learning Cycles in early development. In late development, teams use a blend of traditional project management with a few tailored Agile practices to improve coordination, especially with firmware and software teams that use Agile Software methods.
In 2022, she documented her experiences in the book When Agile Gets Physical, co-written with her long-time collaboration partner, Kathy Iberle.
