Thanks Jen, excellent topic, excellent presentation! I agree that there are several (painful) reasons that usually dissuade people from doing modifying Templates. Imagine, for example, adding a new valuable section of tasks (e.g. a "QA Review") to an existing template: modifying the Template itself...

 BACKSTORY Have you ever wanted (or Been Told by someone who wanted) a way to easily make Program level long range plans so that you can rough out your timelines within Workfront? It's pretty common across all industries: Marketing/Agencies need to plan campaigns, BioTechs need to plan clinical tria...

 Thanks @Jason_JB, This graphic explains the Baselineᐩ part of the equation:  As the punchline says, the earlier you start capturing Baselineᐩ data, the further back in time comparisons can be made.
