Product Ecosystem Mapping: A key to developing a strong product strategy is understanding your product's ecosystem. Reach out to the LACE to facilitate a session to identify and map relationships between your product, the users, human processes, and systems that make up your product's ecosystem
Persona and Journey Mapping Workshops: Collaborate with the CCSQ Centers of Excellence (LACE and HCD) to improve or define personas, their characteristics, and needs. Then work together to define or improve insight into how, where, and why the persona's enter the system and how they reach their goals and satisfy their needs. Use these personas and journeys in features and user stories to connect the software to the people and impart a clearer sense of purpose and alignment
Feature Authoring: Work with a LACE team member to increase the granularity of your features and improve the success criteria, include non-functional requirements.
Feature Visioning: Improve your feature presentation to more clearly convey value, context and requirements to maximize the understanding your product owners need.

Value Assessment: An essential tool in prioritizing and sequencing your program backlog is understanding the value each feature will deliver. Value assessment can be tricky in the federal context. Learn how to assess value, who's input is needed and how to measure the value delivered in relation to the other features in your backlog in your program's context.
