This is part of a set of four Technical Program Management topologies provided by guest community contributor, Aadil Maan.
About the TPM Ephermeral model
Aadil describes this model in his blogpost, "TPM Team Topology - Pt. 1." Below is an excerpt:
"Overview: A variation of the centralized topology, TPMs are the execution/tactical arm of the Product Organization. The TPMs are hired and report under the Product Management leadership.
Operational Mandate: In this TPMO’s may own release management at the org level, maintain shared org processes and frameworks (think agile project management), and support the execution of the roadmap at a tactical level by the engineering teams.
In another scenario, the TPMs may go from large projects to large projects driving them to execution and may not necessarily be accountable for supporting a particular team as the team TPM. They may work along side product leaders providing support for entire product areas and/or lines.
Companies Where I Have Seen This: Nike; Shopify"
