Prioritization, or more specifically deciding what you will and will not build, is a key decision teams and organizations make on a regular basis.

You could even say that it is the most important activity that product people, including business analysts, do. Yet many organizations use ineffective approaches to prioritization that adds more confusion than clarity, and leaves teams focusing on who screams loudest.

Additionally, prioritization approaches vary widely depending on your context. You take a different approach to deciding what you do when you manage an excruciatingly long backlog than when you’re building software to support a new process.

Come to this workshop to learn some key prioritization principles, experience some simple, yet powerful prioritization techniques, and engage with others to figure out the proper prioritization techniques for your context.
