Much has been written about the process of creating product roadmaps, not least the six great articles written by my own team. I believe the actions of a product leader all too often are the root cause of a “bad” roadmap. Without thoughtful leadership around them, it may not be in product manager’s gift to achieve a “good” roadmap.

For example, a product manager might determine the product strategy and one or more development teams might be tasked with executing it. But as long as innovation, change, and risk are present, this approach is ineffective. With an actionable product roadmap in place, move on and stock your product backlog.

First, my WIP status: 4 presentations still (no change from yesterday). However, some teams (and organizations) use backlogs as if they are roadmaps, with every possible idea in the backlog. And, too often, the roadmap does not change, so the backlog stays in place, as if it is a petrified tree, glowering over the team and their work.

For product strategy and roadmap meetings, I recommend involving the key stakeholders , for example, someone from sales, marketing, support, and finance, as well as development team representatives—ideally members who know about the user experience (UX), architecture, and technologies. This might be your Scrum Master or an agile coach.

It took me a while to understand it and honestly the more I learn about product development the more I think that split creates more friction than clarity. 'Product created an unachievable roadmap' , 'Engineering isn't delivering what they say they will' Product & Engineering are co-dependent.

Since releasing both a webinar and book on the impact of feature-less roadmaps on your product strategy recently, we’ve gotten a lot of questions about why we’re so hostile to including features on product roadmaps. Features have long been the basic unit of measurement that product development teams track. Are we anti-feature?
