Strategy Mapping Techniques
Impact Mapping
Created by Gojko Adzic. Impact Mapping is a lightweight collaborative planning technique. It is based on user interaction design, outcome driven planning and mind mapping. Impact maps help delivery teams and stakeholders visualise roadmaps, explain how deliverables connect to user needs and communicate how user outcomes relate to higher level organisational goals.
Event Storming fits well in the same space as Impact Mapping, Story Mapping and other collaborative discovery activities. Event Storming is good to build a shared understanding, the use Impact Mapping to get a sense of direction, and finally Story Mapping for finding out how to implement and deliver an application.
Wardley Mapping
Created by Simon Wardley. Wardley Mapping is a technique that helps you examine your environment, identify upcoming changes and properly choose your actions. By examining what is needed, what components will be in use, what are their dependencies and characteristics, you can build a visual representation of your world, play what-if games, and pick your direction and best actions to support it.
