Roadmapping with C Todd Lombardo
It’s no secret, roadmaps are hard but thankfully, C Todd Lombardo was on hand to talk about the multitude of forms that roadmaps can take – what should be included, what should not be put in the sin bin and how this changes depending on who’s looking at your roadmap? He also tackled the question, ‘do I even need a roadmap?’.
