ROADMAPPING - Mission 1: Defining & gathering the inputs into an effective roadmap
Roadmapping is a key aspect to every product manager's job. It can make or break the success of a business and that's why we put some depth behind our roadmapping missions. We cover everything from the inputs to a good roadmap and the process by which the roadmap is created, but also how to communicate it in a way that drives commitment in the organization.
