Why it works
How does it stay up to date?
A single living document houses scope, milestones, and owners so updates are visible to all stakeholders.
Weekly status updates keep the board current and reduce last-minute surprises.
Clear ownership assignments minimize ambiguity during handoffs.
Can I adapt it for agile or non‑agile teams?
Yes. You can rename milestones to sprints or phases and map them to your cadence. The template supports both iterative and linear workflows.
