On This Lesson 4 topics
This lesson is planned. The outline below lists the topics it will cover. The full lesson has not been published yet.
In this lesson
build a roadmap that connects where we are, where we want to be, and safe steps between.
Planned topics
- Target state: the architecture the business needs in about three years, described by capabilities and qualities, not products.
- Transition states: stable intermediate states, each useful on its own and each reversible.
- Checkpoints: dated points where evidence decides whether to continue, adjust, or stop.
- A roadmap is not a feature list; it links work to outcomes and to assumptions.
Draft outline details
Demonstration
a three-row timeline for Commerce 2030: now, month 12, month 24, target at month 36, with capabilities, assumptions, and a checkpoint after each step.
