A Practical Guide to Adapt Product Thinking as a Habit

10 Aug 2021 | 07:30 PM - 08:30 PM  IST | Online

Product Manager is not an unknown word anymore as it used to be a decade or two ago. Though, there is still a kind of ambiguity around what a Product Manager really does, or should do to be a great Product Manager. Some believe an MBA is required, where some may expect them to come from an engineering background. No one definition will fit everyone. A great PM would be one who has a deep understanding of the customers, proficiency of the market & the competitors operates with knowledge & confidence, and is able to help steer all other stakeholders in the right direction-not with the force of position or power but as a true servant leader. 

What becomes essentially fundamental is the skills & product thinking mindset required to be a great PM and how can one acquire them - whether you are an experienced PM upskilling yourself, a newly inducted PM, or an aspiring PM. Product Thinking makes you focus on the outcome than the output & truly building the products that the customers will love! Developing & nurturing product thinking is not rocket science, but it takes time. And for a technology startup or a company focused on product-driven innovation, it absolutely makes sense to invest in people who reflect customer & product-focused mindsets.
