If your roadmap fits on one slide, are you dreaming big enough?

A slide shows what’s certain; vision lives in the unknown.

“Can we simplify the roadmap?”
The intention was good make it digestible, executive-ready, easy to scan.
But somewhere between simplification and sanitization, something was lost.
