• Area of responsibility and priorities needs to be defined and visible.
• Outcome – clear understanding of scope of work.

Step 1 : Visualize areas of responsibilities

Technique – building an initial backlog – high level view.

Step 2 :  visualizing the professional areas of responsibility : an example

Going forward and mapping the severity of issues in each area

Identifying  problematic areas

Start to set the correct priority inside the areas of responsibility 

Visualization benefits (example)

While going forward we start to drill down into important areas only(just enough)

Next step

Building high level backlog with drill down to main items.
