Roadmaps are dead.ย
Agile is a great theoretical tool for product development, but as a methodology it is vastly underestimating the need for close interaction with business stakeholders - and as such fail to scale successfully.ย And creating future looking roadmaps in a truly agile organization using our existing tools is all but impossible. In order to scale agile it is not more autonomy or independence that is needed, but closer collaboration with business.ย
Long live Outmaps.
Outmaps is my newly forged term for a new cross-functional product development process, aimed at solving many of the practical issues of scaling agile at large enterprises. At itโs core, itโs about integrating outcome-based technical solutioning with business impact mappings and systematic feedback loops. This new ProdOps methodology is what we are pioneering at Spot UX. To find out more, please follow us on LinkedIn and Twitter.
