As a product manager or a UX designer you will likely have a whole host of mini problems to tackle—to enhance functionality, introduce new features, fix errors, add delightful details, iterate usability issues reported by users, diagnose and address falling user engagement. It is tempting to work on everything, to make a perfect product. But is it possible to do it all? More importantly, is it worth it? And how do you prioritize what’s worth working on? That’s where the problem prioritization matrix comes into the picture.
