The Impact Mapping method could be a good framework for strategic planning, however, this book could have been a short blog post. More than half of the book content is just super shallow comparisons with other methods and trying to convince how awesome this is instead of diving deep into details of this method.

Introduction to a method for understanding and scoping technology products/projects in the contexts of the goals they ought to achieve and their potential impact. Actionable enough to make use of these methods in the short term, open enough to adjust the methods according to specific business and internal needs.

Overall, it feels like a sensible framework for making business objectives explicit and exploring the people, pathways, and constraints in line with achieving those objectives.

An easy to read book on basically using more examples in specification process and how this will impact and improve the process and the testing of requirements. A good read and most likely a good step up to Specification by Example of the same author.

Excellent book for every software developer and designer.
