What is the Production-Grade Product-Led Operating Models course about?

Traditional compliance models are breaking under pressure from rapid product iteration and evolving regulatory expectations. Manual checklists, siloed reviews, and post-release audits create bottlenecks. The lack of integrated, product-aware operating models forces trade-offs between speed and adherence, putting both innovation and compliance at risk.
