Prioritize Your Product Roadmap Around Your Product Vision

Prioritizing initiatives for product development can be challenging, but tying decisions to the product vision and strategic goals is crucial. Organizations often struggle with prioritization due to basing decisions on incorrect information or external pressures. To effectively prioritize a roadmap, follow these steps: 1) Gather actionable data from various sources, 2) Identify high-value initiatives that align with the product vision, 3) Score initiatives using frameworks like IMPACT, and 4) Obtain stakeholder buy-in by being transparent about the decision-making process. Keeping the product vision at the forefront of decision-making ensures a focused and effective roadmap amidst change.
