Currently the Strategy --> Initiative screen is totally manual. You just drag and drop initiatives to where you think they should go in terms of value and estimates and it totally does not take into account the value and effort estimates that are applied to the features underneath those initiatives. If this was done it would give a great visual on effort vs value.
It's possible to create pivot and timeline reports to analyze which initiatives have the highest Aha! scores.
This can be set up in a pivot table by show Feature name as the row, Initiative name in the columns and Feature scores in the Cells. By sum values, you can see the total summed Aha! scores across each initiative.
The Strategy roadmap screen is meant to be used to outline the strategic roadmap. You can also apply various filters to analyze initiatives by status.
We would suggest the workaround noted above to analyze initiatives. However, we are unlikely to make additional updates in this area based on current priorities, community feedback and current functionality. We hope you can understand.
Currently I have to load all my initiatives into a spreadsheet and map to give people a visual on what projects we should be doing. the initiatives chart is so manual it is unusable, would be really great to have the initiatives automatically move to where they belong in that chart based on a score
Dear Admin,
I'm confused by your response.
We hope you see our point is that Aha! is extremely valuable for Product teams and some areas feel like they come up short. We all agree the Scorecard/Score are needed and utilized well; however, they seem to fall short of the realistically potential benefits.
