## Roadmapping in Asana as a Growth PM at Asana

_In this blog article, hear from Adam Higa, Growth PM at Asana._

I’m a Growth PM at Asana, and yes — I use Asana to build features for Asana. Very meta, I know. But being both a user and builder gives me a unique perspective on what works.

I’ve developed a system with Asana that keeps me focused on **outcomes, not just shipping features**.

Given it’s January, I wanted to share three tips for how I approach **roadmapping and OKR planning**in Asana:

## 1.) Top-down, not bottom-up

I don’t start with tasks. I start with Asana’s Goals feature to define:
- A **North Star metric,**which in my case is driving incremental ARR for Asana’s PLG business
- **Objectives and key results** that support my North Star Metric. I’m primarily focused on Net Dollar Retention this year to drive sustainable growth and rationalize higher marketing investment in top-of-funnel traffic.
- **Experiment ideas** - These days, I’m thinking a lot about creating ‘Aha moments’ for our customers in the first 30 days of onboarding to invite new teammates into Asana as a force multiplier. 

## 2.) Only define 50% upfront, leave room for discovery

Growth work is fast and messy. Traditional roadmaps typically fail for growth PMs when they try to define everything they will deliver over a 6-12 month time frame. I define only ~50% of experiments during roadmapping at the start of the quarter. Continuous discovery — fueled by market research, customer interviews, and experiment data — allows us to **adapt, reprioritize, and generate our highest conviction ideas in real time**.

As ideas evolve, they are linked to our topline goals in Asana, serving as a single source of truth for the work our team is doing. 

This system keeps the team nimble while maintaining alignment with outcomes.

## 3.) Learn from the past: grade your previous KRs

Before defining new OKRs, I review and grade past Key Results. What worked? What didn’t? What surprised us? This reflection helps me:
- Set more realistic, data-informed targets
- Identify gaps or opportunities we missed
- Carry forward lessons that make the next half more impactful

It turns OKRs into a continuous learning loop rather than just a checkbox exercise. Having all of my past goals in Asana makes them easy to reference for many quarters to come. 

Bye bye, Roadmapping_FY27_v31_Final_final slide deck. Hello Asana Goals!

如果您經常替團隊或公司設定目標，那麼您可能聽過 OKR 一詞。所謂的 OKR (或稱「目標與關鍵結果」) 是一種設定目標的方法，用以幫助團隊設定可衡量的目標。大部分的公司都有設定目標的習慣，然而只有 16% 的知識型員工表示他們任職的公司確實有效地設定並傳達公司所訂立的目標。您可以嘗試使用 OKR 提升員工對目標設定的參與程度，並幫助您的團隊訂定及達成宏大 ...

看到成功的企業，很容易讓人認定是這些企業的核心構想造就了它們現在的地位。Intel 發明了微晶片、Netflix 開創了隨選提供的影片串流，而 Google 則打造了現代化的搜尋引擎。然而，只靠一個構想將讓您僅止於此。真正把雜亂無章的新創公司轉而變為業界領先的企業，通常並不是憑藉他們原創的構想，而是他們的執行。例如，Google 是搜尋引擎的代名詞，但並不 ...
