What is Product Management

 Product Management 

If you are new to product management and looking for the opportunity in this field then you have landed at the right place.

Let's begin this journey by getting familiar with what is actually product management(PM). PM is a role where the candidate has to research the market find the pain points of the users and finally craft the roadmap of how to achieve the final product by working with different teams like UI/UX designer, engineering team, sales representative, and the management of the organization. In simple words, I would say you are giving birth to a product.

One in a PM role must have the right balance of soft and hard skills.

Soft Skills:

  • Communication
  • Presentation
  • Leadership

Hard Skills:

  • Prioritization
  • Analytical
  • Problem Solving
  • Critical Thinking
  • Thought Clarity
In the next blog, we will see how to improve on the above skills and the best online courses which are available.

  "What we are doing to the forests of the world is but a mirror reflection of what we are doing to ourselves and to one another"  Mahatma Gandhi.  Probably the above quote fits more than true in the COVID times as the way humans have ruthlessly killed the wild animals and destroyed forest in the same way nature also rewind human life. To sensitize people toward wildlife and environment preservation, organizations like World Wide Fund (WWF) for nature have been working since 1961.  WWF is the world's largest wildlife and nature conservation organization, with over 5 million supporters worldwide, working in more than 100 countries, and supporting around 3000 conservation and environmental projects.
