The goal

In the previous Exercise, the senior product manager at MakeYourMaps asked you to design wireframes to visualize your product improvement stories. Now, they’d like you to present your product improvement ideas to the CPO as part of an executive-level product review. The CPO is particularly keen to understand your research personas and see some product visuals (like your wireframes!).
