The holidays are over, and most companies are back to business as usual. Dev teams around the world pick up the backlog where they left it last year. Managers measure the progress that has been made over the previous weeks. We're back in business! But some people will have this uncomfortable sense of dread. Last year, they spent so much time building that Roadmap 2024, and now that the year has kicked off, they wonder: are we still on track? The majority of managers will not yet reassess their plans. That's too early. They will wait a few more weeks to take a look. After all, the year is only a week young. How much can we have deviated already?
Roadmap = our defined path with what we know now, expected to be adjusted as we know more!
