Are You Building the Right Thing? Product Roadmapping for Outcome-Based Results

New

The world of agility and DevOps is focused on building it fast and building it right. But, are you building the right thing? Should you even be building at all? All too often the onus to identify “value” is on a Product Owner or Scrum Master. But, they are often without the support of a product strategy, and neither they nor the delivery team has a real understanding of expected business outcomes. The result? A disparate list of “must have” requirements that eventually end up with a go-to-market team who coordinates a release train based on coordinating operational considerations rather than actualizing business and customer benefit. In this tutorial, you will learn how to move beyond a product backlog to craft a value-driven speed-to-market strategy that aligns multiple stakeholders, validates your problem and solution hypothesis, and creates a Product Roadmap that conjoins customer journeys with incremental releases. And as always, there will be pictures of dogs.
