Product Vision Statement
The vision statement workshop is your friend if you are building a new product or service.
What is a vision statement
A vision statement describes the desired long-term results of your product, service or company's efforts. For example, an early Microsoft vision statement was “a computer on every desk and in every home.”
Why use this workshop
I often observed people talking differently of a same product. As if the vision was not really shared, written somehow. So I designed this workshop, used and resused it to:
Align people on a common the vision
Extract the essence of the value of the product, service, or company
Describe the value of the product, service, or company in one short sentence
When you should use it
Use it right after the user research phase (if you follow the HCD stages), when it is time to concretise the vision, the core value of your product or company. It extract what it brings to the table and will allow you to influence the following design choices to meet that vision.
Who should use this workshop
Leaders, Product Managers, designers are the most dedicated ones to use this template to work with the team that is working on the product or company.
This template was created by Anne-Audrey Gounot.

Sustainable Product Innovation Board
Works best for:
Product Management, Planning
The Sustainable Product Innovation Board template supports sustainable product development practices. By integrating sustainability criteria into product ideation, design, and implementation processes, this template fosters eco-friendly product innovation. With sections for evaluating environmental impacts and setting sustainability goals, it enables teams to create products that minimize ecological footprints and promote social responsibility. This template serves as a framework for driving sustainable business practices and meeting consumer demands for environmentally conscious products.
Brainwriting Template
Works best for:
Education, Ideation, Brainstorming
Brainstorming is such a big part of ideation. But not everyone does their best work out loud and on the spot, yelling out thoughts and building on others’ ideas. Brainwriting is a brilliant solution for them—creative thinkers who happen to be more introverted. This approach and template invites participants to reflect quietly and write out their ideas, and then pass them to someone else who will read the idea and add to it. So you’ll get creative ideas from everyone—not just the loudest few.
Timeline Template
Works best for:
Project Management, Flowcharts, Project Planning
A timeline displays a chronological order of important dates, and scheduled events. Timelines help product managers, project managers, and team members tell visual stories about progress and obstacles. Timelines enable teams to see at a glance what happened before, what progress is happening now, and what needs tackling in the future. Projects or products with specific purpose or deliverables should be based on a timeline to be successful. Use the timeline as a shared reference for start dates, end dates, and milestones.
Product Roadmap Template
Works best for:
Product Management, Roadmaps
Product roadmaps help communicate the vision and progress of what’s coming next for your product. It’s an important asset for aligning teams and valuable stakeholders – including executives, engineering, marketing, customer success, and sales – around your strategy and priorities. Product roadmapping can inform future project management, describe new features and product goals, and spell out the lifecycle of a new product. While product roadmaps are customizable, most contain information about the products you’re building, when you’re building them, and the people involved at each stage.
Impact/Effort Matrix Template
Works best for:
Project Management, Strategic Planning, Prioritization
Growing organizations have countless to-do’s and only so many hours in a day (or weeks before a big launch) to get them done. That’s where an impact effort matrix comes in. It gives you a quick visual guide to help prioritize your tasks and know exactly what’s worth doing. Using our template, you can create a matrix that organizes your activities into four main categories: quick wins that are low effort, effort-intensive projects that provide long-term returns, fill-ins that are low effort but low value, and time-wasters.
BPM
Works best for:
Diagramming
The BPM (Business Process Management) template is a visual tool for modeling, analyzing, and optimizing business processes. It provides a structured framework for documenting process flows, identifying bottlenecks, and improving efficiency. This template enables organizations to streamline operations, enhance productivity, and drive business performance. By promoting process transparency and agility, the BPM template empowers teams to achieve operational excellence and deliver value to stakeholders.
