In his book User Story Mapping: Discover the Whole Story, Build the Right Product, Jeff Patton explains how to write better stories by creating story maps. Story maps foster better collaboration within and across teams, leading to shared understanding about the product. Dion Stewart learned story mapping from Jeff Patton and David Hussman six years ago. After using story mapping on a product as a developer, he was hooked. As a coach, Dion has taught story mapping to dozens of organizations. Along the way, story mapping has evolved. Dion explores how teams are using annotated journeys with story maps to drive discussions around testing, ensuring outcomes and key results can be met, and how annotated journeys have most recently been used in defining architectures—especially microservice architectures.
