Some fresh ideas about business, technology, and design for product managers
Roadmapping
As a Product Manager, you need to know where you are, where you’re going, and what needs to be done along the way.

For most product managers in charge of planning the product roadmap, the task of determining which features to include and which to prioritize is a daunting one.
