The Product Portfolio Rebalancing Workshop
Product line getting bloated? Clean up your portfolio by identifying what to grow and what to sunset.
About this session
When a product line expands without regular pruning, resources often get trapped in low-impact legacy features while high-potential opportunities starve for attention. This session forces a critical evaluation of every offering to determine which should be scaled and which must be retired. You will leave with a documented plan for resource reallocation and a team aligned on what no longer belongs in the portfolio.
Why it works
By moving the conversation from individual feature performance to a comparative landscape, the workshop prevents emotional attachment from protecting underperforming assets. The structured evaluation creates a shared evidence base, making it easier for the group to reach a consensus on sunsetting products that are no longer strategically viable.
What you’ll walk away with
- Clear actionable outcomes from a 3-step facilitated process
- Increased participant engagement and buy-in
- Documented decisions and next steps
- Improved team alignment on the topic
Who it’s for
