    Succeeding with Product Portfolio Roadmaps
    2025/02/07
    As helpful as they can be, product roadmaps are not always enough. To closely align a group of products and ensure that they all move in the same direction, you’ll benefit from a portfolio roadmap. In this episode, I explain what a product portfolio roadmap is. I share a template to help you build your own outcome-based portfolio roadmap. I show how you can connect your portfolio roadmap to the portfolio strategy and use it to direct the product roadmaps, and I describe who should be involved in developing the plan.

Unfortunately, many conflicts are handled poorly; they are hidden or result in personal attacks.
