    Thanks, Tim. Thanks for your courage sharing the sometimes harsh realities of work. I'm sorry to hear what you went thru at Logitech; some managers shouldn't be managers. Unfortunately, there's really no professional code of conduct for bosses. Maybe there should be. By the way, I thought you were great at Logi. I'm surprised the mgr reached out afterwards; that's rare. There is a door in the heart...so glad yours is open. Btw, I hate oatmeal, too. 😂.

    Way to share… felt like you looked behind ‘my curtain’ exposing personal fears, insecurities, and that ‘imposter syndrome.’ I’ve been successful, do my job well and am respected, but been playing it safe. And have not really had a mentor either. Thanks Tim for being vulnerable and brave at the same time. Appreciated

    I feel you, Ashley! I get a little itchy too when I start to get too specialized. I also graduated the same year as you and have partially attributed my love of being a generalist to the security that versatility and marketability brought me during down markets.

    • @LetsTalkJobs_WithTim
      @LetsTalkJobs_WithTim 8 месяцев назад

      I can totally relate to this as well! Wether through life circumstance or career choices, looking back, I've never really allowed myself to double down and become a specialist. I think the closest I came was a 4 year stretch at NetApp where I focused on Digital Strategy. But even that in itself was really a hybrid function of web UX, design, CRO and SEO. I feel like I'm better for it, and certainly have some interesting stories as a result of success and failures.

    Hello! Is it possible to transition from product design into management?

    • @awuziepascal1566
      @awuziepascal1566 8 месяцев назад

      yes, you can transition from product design to product management. Design is one of the aspects a product manager will focus on and both roles are mostly focused on the user and user experience so that is one skill you can transition with to product management.

    • @LetsTalkJobs_WithTim
      @LetsTalkJobs_WithTim 7 месяцев назад

      @@awuziepascal1566 I 100% agree with this. A product designer who sits close to the data I would say has an even better chance because you're understanding how a customer is engaging with your UX design. Understanding intent is a huge part of developing a POV on product roadmap development (if product management is where you want to go). Depending on the individual, there are soft skills you may need to learn. For product management in particular, exposure to things like revenue is important. However your options can go beyond product management. Comms, campaign management, web, etc... All of these leverage skillsets that are aligned to your experiences as a product designer.

    Pretty helpful, thank you. For associate product managers, is knowledge of revenue forecasting needed?

    • @LetsTalkJobs_WithTim
      @LetsTalkJobs_WithTim Год назад

      Thanks for the comment. For associate PMs, understanding the basics of how forecasting is always helpful, even if you haven’t been responsible for it. Having a passion for the product category and demonstrating a never-give-up entrepreneurial attitude is more important for first time PMs. Hiring managers need to know that you’ll take self initiative to learn on the job and think creatively to solve problems. Because PM requires cross-functional leadership and communication, demonstrating that is helpful.
