TEI 114: Three new product managers share insights about their role

Global Product Management Talk is pleased to bring you the next
episode of... The Everyday Innovator with host Chad McAllister,
PhD. The podcast is all about helping people involved in innovation
and managing products become more successful, grow their careers,
and STANDOUT from their peers. About the Episode: This is the where
product managers learn to be product masters. Product masters are
the leaders of products in organizations and this episode is a very
special one as I have not one but three guests who are all on their
way to becoming product masters. This episode came about with the
help of one of my customers — Soren — who is in my IDEA Framework
eCourse, which teaches the essential base of skills that lead to
being a product master. We were discussing topics for this podcast
and he shared how he would love to hear from other millennial
product managers. He said that the experts I often interview
provide valuable insights for him, but that he would also like to
hear from product managers who are younger in their career and
still figuring out what it means to be a product manager. I not
only thought that was a great idea but knowing Soren, I also
thought he would be a great guest to share advice from his
experience. He found two other young product managers so we could
have a variety of experiences to learn from. They are each in their
20’s and have been working as a product manager for 6 months to
about 3 years. Both new and more experienced product managers
should listen to this discussion as there is something for all of
us. Specifically, younger product managers will learn: - Challenges
product managers must deal with, - Tips for improving your
effectiveness, and - The one thing each of the guests wish they
knew about product management sooner in their careers.
