Quick 45-Minute Roadmap Sanity Check

Ensure your roadmap actually makes sense. A rapid review session to catch obvious flaws before the big presentation.

About this session

Roadmaps often look solid in isolation but can quickly unravel when presented to leadership or stakeholders. This session provides a structured pressure test to identify logical gaps, hidden dependencies, or unrealistic timelines before they become public commitments. You will leave with a specific list of adjustments needed to make your plan defensible and realistic.

Why it works

This session shifts the team's mindset from passive approval to active interrogation by focusing exclusively on finding points of failure. The tight 45-minute constraint prevents deep-diving into minor details, forcing the group to surface the most critical contradictions or resource conflicts that would otherwise derail the project later.

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
