How I prioritize

RICE+I scoring

Effective prioritization is the most critical skill in product management. I use a multi-dimensional model that balances reach, impact, confidence, effort — and the upside of innovation.

R

Reach

How many users will this impact?

I

Impact

How much will it affect those users?

C

Confidence

How certain are we about our estimates?

E

Effort

How much work will this require?

I

Innovation

Does this create new opportunities or capabilities?

“The best product methodologies are adaptable frameworks, not rigid processes. They provide structure while letting teams respond to unique challenges and opportunities.”
