Manage the Product, not the Team. Focus on your job as the product manager or product owner, and manage the product, not the team. Treat the Team as an Equal Partner. The team members are not your resources but the people who create your product. Assume that the team members want to do their best.

On the ANE panel last night, an agile coach asked, “What's my path forward as an agile coach? Focus on business results, not agility per se. Teams might feel pressure from a too-large backlog or too-long roadmap. Not because people are somehow bad, stupid, or wrong. Nobody wants to “be agile.”

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. I would define a good roadmap as one that the team understands and feels ownership over.
