User Personas are laid out horizontally at the top of the map. Think of these as major categories of users that gain value from using the system
Business/User goals are laid out next. These are major objectives that that the system must support, with tangible business outcomes and real business
Goals are then broken up into explicit user activities. User activities are tangible, sequential events that describe what the user needs to do in order to get value
Finally, activities are broken up into explicit stories. These stories are laid out directly underneath the user activity that the story realizes
