While browsing one of the online communities I am part of, someone commented that outcome-based roadmaps were just ‘regular roadmaps’ anyway, and that: “… Any product manager that knows what they’re doing doesn’t need outcome-based roadmaps.

The ideas of Agile are great. Design Thinking is how we explore and solve problems; Lean is our framework for testing our beliefs and learning our way to the right outcomes; and Agile is how we adapt to changing conditions with software.
