A good product roadmap is one of the most important and influential documents an organization can develop, publish, and continuously update. In fact, this one document can steer an entire organization when it comes to delivering on company strategy.
In this hands-on virtual workshop, legendary product leader Bruce McCarthy walks you through his process for articulating your product’s vision, validating your product themes, and create a roadmap visualization for your team’s product.
Join Bruce McCarthy, legendary product leader, co-author of “Product Roadmaps Relaunched: How to Set Direction while Embracing Uncertainty” and learn why this approach to roadmapping works and how you can improve product roadmapping in your organization.
All How to Web workshops consist of live sessions with the instructor delivered online, with no recorded materials, so you can discuss your problems and get your questions answered.

Bruce’s bestselling book “Product Roadmapping Relaunched: How to Set Direction While Embracing Uncertainty” has become a cornerstone for all product professionals, and an established guide to developing product roadmaps.
Most people think of a product roadmap as a list of features with dates. This approach, however, usually results in disappointment. The initial roadmap has lots of detail but fails to set a clear strategic direction, objectives, or priorities. Worse, the details keep changing and people are left with a sense that there is no direction and no strategy.
A roadmap should instead be a tool for rallying your entire organization around your product vision and the major steps required to achieve it. And, critically, it should describe the problems to be solved rather than the detailed solutions which have yet to be tested and vetted. A roadmap is not a project plan. It is much more than that. It is a GPS for product success.
