Are You Technical Enough?
I’ve written earlier about how much domain experience is important for product managers (The Role of Domain Experience) and also the pros and cons of college hires versus hiring experience (Youth vs. Experience), but a question I often get is just how much technological competency is required in order to be a strong, effective product manager? Many managers aren’t really sure if a candidate is technical enough, and many aspiring product managers aren’t sure if they are technical enough for the job.
The Best Product Management Model?
One question I get quite frequently is “Google is making boatloads of money, so how can we do product management like Google?” Or another common variant is “Apple creates fantastic products. How can we do product management like Apple?”
