Operating Model Strategy Advisory

Turn product decisions into business results.

Your teams ship on time and the numbers still don't move. We change how your organization decides what to build, and prove it with numbers. Strategic enough to identify the right product problem, hands-on enough to lead the work and deliver a measurable outcome.

Product Discovery is a missing peace of your Product Development process.

Taxfix sells two ways to file taxes - do it yourself, or hand it to a tax expert. We embedded with the Activation team of this 1M+ user fintech to merge both onboardings into one, designing 8 concepts and A/B testing them through the tax-season peak.

How can we help you?

Three ways in, depending on how much of the operating model you want to change and how fast.

Product Discovery Workshop

Three days that give a team the mindset, the habit and the validation methods they keep using after we leave.

Product Operating Model Transformation

Two weeks to understand how your teams decide what to build. One quarter to prove a different way on one of them. Then you decide whether to roll it out.

Product Coaching & Advisory

Weekly coaching inside the real work, for the people who actually have to make the calls, until the habits hold without us in the room.

Three steps you can stop after any of: a two-week Assessment Sprint to understand how your organization builds, solves problems and decides what to build; a one-quarter Pilot Team Sprint that proves the impact on one business metric with one team; and a 3 to 6 month program that scales what the pilot proved to every team.

Feedback from people who experienced our services

"I recommend Aleksander to everyone who is looking to upskill in the product space"

"I was part of the Product Discovery training conducted by Aleksander for Syncron. Right from the start, the training became a focal point for triggering new thoughts on discovery. From learning to formulate product goals that are in sync with business goals, to identifying opportunities, ideating and then validating them, everything was conducted by Aleksander in a playful manner involving the team in group activities that stimulated learning. By the end of 3 days, I realize that there are lots of new things that I have learned and am looking to implement them in some form in my organization. I recommend Aleksander to everyone who is looking to upskill in the product space simply for the depth of his knowledge, teaching methodology and humbleness."

"Our engineering team was able to deliver new features much faster thanks to cooperation with ProductTrio"

"Olek helped us smoothly expand our neobanking business to a wealth management platform by focusing our efforts on understanding customers' needs with remote team alignment workshops, customer persona definition & structured customer interviews. On top of that, he saved us a lot of time by delivering best-in-class industry research & new UX flows and designs, which sped up time-to-market for our engineering team."

"Olek is one of the most talented and dedicated professionals I’ve ever worked with"

"Taking a product from concept to launch comes with its own challenges, but Olek’s ability to navigate complex problems and deliver innovative solutions was truly impressive. His work at FOUND showcased his deep technical knowledge, commitment to excellence, and attention to detail. As a designer, it was a pleasure to work with Olek in our product trio setup - he’s proactive, open to collaboration, and always ahead of the curve, anticipating roadblocks and addressing them efficiently and creatively. I highly recommend Olek to any organization looking for a visionary leader and dedicated team player."
