Layout Pattern

Roadmap

Strategic timeline showing planned initiatives across phases or quarters. Communicates direction and commitment.

How to Use It

Roadmap slides balance specificity with flexibility. Use swim lanes for different workstreams or a phased timeline (Now/Next/Later is safer than specific dates for external audiences). Color-code by category or priority. Mark completed items differently from planned ones. Include a disclaimer on external roadmaps. Keep it to one page - a cluttered roadmap signals unclear priorities.
