In this episode of All Things Product, Petra Wille and Teresa Torres dive deep into a question from a listener: What’s the real difference between organizations that fund projects and those that fund teams?
It’s a deceptively simple question that touches the core of shifting from a project-based mindset to a product operating model. Teresa and Petra unpack what it actually takes to move toward team-based funding—especially when continuous discovery is involved. From annual planning and ROI modeling to bridging the communication gap with finance, they talk through the practical, messy, and often political nature of this transformation.
If you’re a product leader, product manager, or work closely with finance, this episode is packed with insights on how to drive outcomes, not just output—and why it matters.
