on the other, testing the current assumptions and feeding
back to previous steps any learnings to further develop
the Product Roadmap, feeding into the Go-To-Market Plan.

The five-day program starts at 09:30 am daily with a
morning and afternoon break of 20 minutes plus a lunch
break of one hour. The day will finish at 5:00 pm each day.
​
As part of the program, there are three additional check-ins

from the plan, benchmark against metrics, and codify any
learnings, and adapt the plan for continued iterative
execution.
