What is the Compliance-Ready Product-Led Operating Models course about?

Traditional compliance approaches struggle to keep pace with fast-moving product development. When controls are added after design, teams face rework, audit gaps, and friction with engineering. The result is delayed launches, strained relationships, and increased operational risk. As product-led growth accelerates, compliance must evolve to be anticipatory, integrated, and scalable.
