Product Direction

As a Product Manager I have a love and hate relationship with Product Roadmap. I have struggled to answer these questions in the past: How to create a roadmap that communicates the product direction? How to answer my management team when they want "something big" in the roadmap? How to align with the rest of the team why we have such features in the roadmap?

In this session I want to share my experience on changing the way of creating a roadmap from feature oriented to outcomes oriented. I believe outcomes oriented roadmap would improve your communication with your stakeholders and gain their support. Moreover, articulate better why we are building this to your team.
