In one line: Imagining a compelling future: what new products, systems, or organizations could and should exist.
Part of the Direction cluster of the Engineering Leadership Capabilities.
What it means
Vision gives people a reason to move. For an engineering leader it means seeing past the current specification to the need behind it and painting that future vividly enough that others want to build it.
What it looks like
- Articulating where a product line should be in five years
- Connecting a technical project to the organization’s strategy
- Framing a project around the question “so what, who cares?”
