The product community of practice brings together everyone who works on products across the Group — to share what works, solve problems together, and grow the craft. It is open to all, run by the people in it, and supported by the Centre of Excellence.
Join the community →Good product management is a craft, and crafts are learned together. The community of practice is the place where product people across Ampol compare notes, ask for help, and pass on what they have learned.
It is deliberately not a governance forum. There are no approvals here. It exists so that a hard problem one team has already solved does not have to be solved again from scratch by the next team, and so that good practice spreads.
The Centre of Excellence supports the community and brings tools and topics to it, but the community belongs to its members.
A place to share, learn and solve problems together — owned by product people, supported by the CoE.
Anyone working on or interested in products can join. No invitation needed.
Members bring questions and share answers. Everyone contributes over time.
Sessions focus on real work and real problems, not theory for its own sake.
| Touchpoint | Cadence | What happens |
|---|---|---|
| Community meet-up | Monthly | A topic, a guest or a team sharing recent work, then open discussion. The main gathering. |
| Show & tell | Quarterly | Teams walk through something they have shipped or learned, the good and the hard. |
| Ask the community | Always on | A channel for quick questions between meet-ups — someone has usually been there before. |
| Skills sessions | As needed | Short, focused sessions on a tool or technique, often drawn from the Playbook. |
Add yourself to the group to get meet-up invites and access the channel. Whether you manage products day to day or just want to learn, you are welcome.
