Leading product in enterprise is different. Executives set strategy and teams execute. Between them are the managers, leads, and senior PMs who translate strategy into work. This translation is where transformation succeeds or fails.

How strategy becomes roadmaps. How goals become plans. How intent becomes execution. If the people doing this translation don't understand the new operating model, their teams never will. If they're still measured by old behaviors, the transformation dies. These people are the operating system.

Transformation spreads through translation into real work. These people aren't the bottleneck. They're your transformation engine.
