How do you continue to innovate when your product team(s) have stalled and are no longer bringing new developments to the table?

This is an interesting one where I'd want to understand more. Is the innovation slowdown temporary? What is the cause or strategy behind it? What are the expectations on your organization in light of this?
In many ways I see this as an opportunity for your team to step up as experts in the market and audience. What are the problems that your customer is facing that hasn't been solved yet, but could be with creativity using what you already have in market? I'd suggest pairing closely with your product managers, sales, customer success or other external customer-facing teams to understand what stories you could amplify.
