Understanding Product Vision
Product vision articulates the future state that a team aims to create for its target audience, distinguishing it from where they currently stand. This vision is primarily intended for team members to inspire them and guide their efforts rather than serve as a message for end-users. It is crucial to ensure that the product vision is both inspiring and meaningful for the team, as it helps to clarify the direction and purpose of their work. Teams should evaluate their vision against its ability to spark motivation and commitment among team members, ensuring alignment with the project's goals.
