A successful Product Manager Needs to .... 👇
LEVERAGE THEIR EXPERIENCE
There isn't a single definition of what makes a great PM; figure out what your 'superpower' is and show that you have a unique perspective that will bring value to the role.
KNOW YOUR PRODUCT, BETTER THAN ANYONE ELSE
Simply said - be the one person who knows the product, in a holistic sense, better than anyone else.
ENHANCE YOUR EMPATHY
A lot has been discussed about empathy for customers & users. But this applies to your internal customers and stakeholders, understanding what their problems are & collectively putting together a vision for how to keep the business & the products on target.
KEEP YOUR EYES ON THE PRIZE
You need to keep the vision of the company, its mission, and business objectives in mind, and base your decisions on that.
