Problem

Scenario

You're working on a product with more roadmap requests than the team can realistically ship. Leadership, sales, and customers all have strong opinions about what should come next, and several items seem important for different reasons. You need a clear way to decide what gets built first.

Question

How do you decide what to build first when the roadmap is overloaded?

What This Tests

  • Feature prioritization under competing demands
  • Roadmapping judgment in an enterprise product context
  • Ability to make explicit trade-offs
  • Use of success criteria to justify sequencing
