Managers - how do you organize work and build roadmaps? My team is product analytics and it’s always a challenge because we rarely have enough line of sight to what may be needed in a week or a month. More in comments…

We do two things at my company. First, we have company wide planning every quarter for people to align on priorities. That makes it easier to reject last minute requests that weren’t in the plan. The other thing which helps is moving to a sprint model for your team. One of the biggest problems is it costs other people nothing to ask for analytics help, but costs your team quite a bit to fulfill it. Telling people they’ll have to wait until the next sprint imposes a cost on them and makes them more intentional with their requests.

Our partners are great and bring us in early but we’re a growth stage tech company so things change quickly. We find ourselves thrown into the fire on urgent things so often that it’s hard to tackle strategic product analyses that can create more value in the long run.
