What you'll learn
Choose the right capital allocation driver for 2027
Revenue growth isn't always the right driver. Map your 2027 plan to one of four: revenue, cost, risk, leverage.
Structure your 2027 plan as four capital bets
Translate strategy into four investable bets with KPI ownership, time-to-signal, and confidence levels. Not initiatives.
Pressure-test your 2027 plan before January
Stress-test your 2027 draft against the executive questions you'll face in Q1 planning. Walk out with the rewrite.
Why this topic matters
Most 2027 product strategies will get rewritten in Q1 because they were structured wrong from the start.
Revenue growth isn't always the right driver. Initiatives aren't bets. Roadmaps aren't allocation plans.
The strategies that get funded in 2027 will look different from the ones that got funded in 2026 - because capital is tighter and boards are sharper. This is the framework that survives.
