Key takeaways

  • Products are like real-life ecosystems in that they have complexity and interconnectedness.
  • Mapping an ecosystem can help teams align on their understanding of what’s happening and what needs to be created enabling teams to better align on business OKRs, understand the value that each system gives and receives, validate that all elements are working together effectively, and enable teams to make better decisions with the full picture
  • The 7 layers of Michel’s maps include (Ecosystem, Product, Data, Value, Technical architecture, Service, and OKRs) — each helping to paint a complete picture.
