Key takeaways:

  • The roadmap is a continuation of your strategic goal-setting.
  • Customer feedback and market demand should impact the roadmap.
  • Feature request forms and feedback sessions with customers can provide valuable input.
  • Planning and internal communication are indispensable and stimulate other teams to think ahead.
  • It’s often a good idea to have one external and one internal version.
  • Be cautious when communicating the roadmap externally and avoid promising specific delivery dates externally. A next – now – later approach gives your team greater flexibility. 
  • Everyone in the company should be involved in and able to contribute to the roadmap.
