Being a product manager or a product owner requires more than just great knowledge of the product you are intending to build and the market you are intending to launch it in. It requires more than an understanding of your customers and your users. It requires more than a great relationship with the team of people who are going to be building it and the stakeholders who you need to work with to get it ready.
Being a great product manager requires all of those skills and something else, something perhaps even harder than all of those things…an understanding and mastery of yourself. Product managers are, after all, only human and what I have found over my years of coaching individuals is that we all have a number of traits that can either be used to our advantage or have the effect of holding us back.
For example you may be suffering from Impostor Syndrome if you believe:
A product owner experiencing overdone Impostor Syndrome will be forever doubting their ability and authority to make decisions on the feature makeup of the product and the prioritisation.
Another common characteristic Product Owners need to face is People Pleasing. It's normal for product owners to judge their success by how much or how well they please other people, after all we are hoping to delight our customers and our users! But product owners who find an overwhelming need to please others will often find themselves reacting to every piece of feedback and perhaps even avoid asking for feedback for fear of hearing something negative or disappointing people.
In this course we will cover these traits and others such as Perfectionism and Performance Anxiety to help you master yourself as a Product Owner.
Be more DRIVEN:
Decisive with incomplete information.
Ruthless about maximising value and minimising risk.
Informed about your product’s domain.
Versatile in your leadership style.
Empowering of project stakeholders.
Negotiable while you pursue your vision.
For any people starting out in product management or looking to push themselves towards greatness in the role.
