Portfolio Roadmapping Bets

When NOT to use: Single initiative with clear priority (use one-pager-prd or project-risk-register instead), purely operational prioritization without strategic horizons (use prioritization-effort-impact), or no resource constraints or trade-offs.

Workflow

Copy this checklist and track your progress:

Portfolio Roadmapping Bets Progress:
- [ ] Step 1: Define portfolio theme and constraints
- [ ] Step 2: Inventory and size all bets
- [ ] Step 3: Sequence bets across horizons
- [ ] Step 4: Set exit and scale criteria
- [ ] Step 5: Balance and validate portfolio

Step 1: Define portfolio theme and constraints

Clarify the strategic theme (north star), time horizons (H1/H2/H3 definitions), resource constraints (budget, people, time), and portfolio balance targets (e.g., 70/20/10 rule). See Portfolio Theme & Constraints for guidance.
