Dependencies often get blamed for slowing teams down, but are they really the problem?In this ProductTank Cologne talk, Anna Hannemann shares practical insights from leading a portfolio of 12 product teams, challenging the way we think about dependencies in product organizations.
Instead of avoiding them, Anna explores how to make dependencies visible, manageable, and even valuable.
In this talk, you’ll learn how to:
Treat dependencies as first-class citizens in your roadmap
Regain alignment after strategic pivots
