review 1: Introduction to a method for understanding and scoping technology products/projects in the contexts of the goals they ought to achieve and their potential impact. Actionable enough to make use of these methods in the short term, open enough to adjust the methods according to specific business and internal needs. Overall, it feels like a sensible framework for making business objectives explicit and exploring the people, pathways, and constraints in line with achieving those objectives.
review 2: Simple, straightforward, and indispensable.After reading this book, I started using this technique for the next milestone of our current project, and in just a short time, it has led us to making better decisions about prioritization. In a time-boxed project, better pr... moreioritization decisions are the difference between failure and success.The book itself is concise and well-written, with clear examples and practical advice for creating and making the most out of impact maps. If I have one criticism (and it is a tiny one), it is that the most valuable tool for me--using impact maps as a tool for creating better user stories--is not mentioned until halfway through the book. This one insight alone more than pays for the value of this book 100 times over.Strongly recommended to developers on agile teams, product owners, scrum masters, and the business people who rely upon them to create great products. less
