Product teams are no stranger to a pivoting roadmap. Nailing down customer needs while keeping internal opinions and influences at bay is not only exhausting, it’s unproductive. The endless war room battles that have your roadmap spinning out of control end now.

Imagine if everyone on your team agreed on your customer's needs, what needs aren’t being met, and how to solve for those needs. You'd have a stable target and common decision criteria, instead of a roadmap defined by opinions alone. Through our Jobs-to-be-Done course, you can quantify which needs are most important, maintain a clear strategy, and stay aligned around your customer.

In this course, we’ll teach you how to leverage Jobs-to-be-Done (JTBD) to make smarter choices about what to build and how to understand your customer’s ultimate goal and how they struggle to achieve it.

"Understanding the JTBD was 'realizing my full potential' was a critical first step, but thrv also showed us how to break down this goal/JTBD to identify unmet needs in achieving this goal. This is what we found really powerful about working with thrv; we can identify needs as metrics which we can measure and act on to help our customers/students."
