Roadmaps Are Dead. Long Live Roadmaps! – Janna Bastow on The Product Experience

BY The Product Experience ON OCTOBER 28, 2020

When you have questions about roadmaps, it pays to talk to someone who has spent way too much of her life thinking about them. Janna Bastow – co-founder of both Mind the Product and ProdPad—has been trying to fix the problems of roadmaps for most of her professional life. She hacked together the first version of ProdPad to solve her own problem, then began selling to other product people to help them do the same. In this episode, sponsored by Amplitude, she joins us to give advice for anyone ready to break up with their roadmap.
