How Can Scrum Teams Benefit from an Extended Impact Map

Scrum Teams benefit from impact maps because they support outcome-driven thinking, ensuring the team’s efforts are tied to measurable progress and real user needs.

Metaphor

Using an extended Impact Map is like switching from a selfie stick to a drone when filming a journey. It gives the team a higher vantage point, helping them see not just what they’re doing, but why they’re doing it and where it leads.
By zooming out to outcomes and user needs, Scrum teams can align their work with measurable progress, not just motion.
