- What should product teams finally leave behind and what should they carry forward into 2026?
In this special end-of-year edition of TPG Live, we’ll look at the habits, rituals, and assumptions that are overdue for retirement. From frameworks that create busywork to metrics that distort focus, product leaders are calling time on the practices that no longer deliver real value. This session will surface practical advice on what to cut, what to keep, and how to evolve your product strategy for the year ahead.
We’ll also examine common anti-patterns that continue to slow down teams, such as discovery work with no end, standups with no purpose, and roadmaps with no flexibility. Learn how to spot these traps early, shift your team’s mindset, and reset expectations in ways that lead to clarity and momentum.
- What should your team explore doing differently in 2026?
- What would it look like to lead with fewer rituals and more results?
This roundtable will feature guidance from global product leaders who have helped teams refocus, simplify, and build smarter. Whether you are entering the new year with big goals or just looking to clean up what no longer works, you’ll leave with a clearer view of how to move forward.

Unthinkable Product Strategies: Breaking Rules That No Longer Work
This session challenges long-standing assumptions in product management. Explore which frameworks, rituals, and success metrics no longer serve the modern PM, and hear how forward-thinking leaders are rewriting the rules. We will dig into bold, unconventional approaches that reject safe defaults in favor of fresh thinking and higher-impact strategies. If you're ready to leave the status quo behind and rethink how product success is defined and delivered, this roundtable is for you.
Anti-Patterns in Product Management: What We Keep Getting Wrong
Some product practices look effective on the surface but quietly create drag and dysfunction. From discovery work that never ends to bloated backlogs and performative standups, anti-patterns can drain team momentum and mislead decision-making. In this session, we will examine common traps that even seasoned teams fall into and share practical strategies to avoid or recover from them. Learn how to recognize these patterns early, reset your process, and refocus your team on meaningful progress.
