How do you foster a culture of ownership, accountability, trust, and openness in cross-functional teams? More importantly, how do you manage them for successful outcomes?

We spoke to some seasoned product leaders about their experiences and understanding what works and what doesn’t when leading a cross-functional team.

In brief

  • Take time to observe the team at work before imposing your views as a leader, especially as a leader of a new team. The first 90 days should be used to watch, listen, speak to everyone and, in doing so, build trust
  • Work hard to create goals that align with company goals. Your team should be able to participate in the process
  • Have empathy — this enables you to understand someone else’s context, recognise blind spots, and fill any problematic gaps
