• Those Informed will include Senior management, sales team, and support team who need to know the final prioritized list for planning purposes.

The Play Action Steps will include:

1. My organizing a meeting in which I will share a list of proposed features, and clarify the decision needed.

2. The Contributors, mentioned above, will discuss the pros and cons of each feature.
