Senior leaders often want to see months - or years - long product roadmaps. But these predictions often do not create products your customers will love.

How many times a week (or day) did you get called up to the whiteboard in school to solve a math problem or figure out a grammatical mistake? It used to feel commonplace — and sometimes nerve-wracking. But now — when was the last time you even used a whiteboard for more than just devs? We’re about to change that!
