The key to building a rockstar team? Avoid rushing into hiring Senior Product Managers too quickly! Here's why: 1️⃣ Get to know your existing team's strengths and weaknesses. Bringing in a senior too fast might disrupt the balance! 2️⃣ Allow your team to grow together. Hiring too fast might skip crucial learning and development opportunities for your existing talent. 3️⃣ Seniors often bring their own culture. Make sure it aligns with yours for a seamless integration. 4️⃣ Your current team might have hidden gems. Give them a chance to shine before looking externally. #ProductManagement #Product #Hiring

🤔 What Differentiates an Associate Product Manager, Product Manager, and Senior Product Manager? 🤔 I've been thinking about this recently. Is it the number of years of experience, the number of products launched, or the skills learned over time that set these roles apart? I see many job vacancies seeking a Senior Product Manager. But what exactly makes a Senior Product Manager? If I discover what it is in two months, does that make me a Senior Product Manager? I'd love to hear your thoughts on this, so I can quickly become a Senior Product Manager! 😉 What is the thing that makes a Product Manager stand out from the rest? Let’s discuss!👇 #ProductManagement #CareerGrowth #TechCareers #ProductManager #SeniorProductManager #ContinuousLearning #TechIndustry #ProfessionalDevelopment image from freepik.com

Do you need domain expertise to be a great Product Manager or Chief Product Officer? The domain expertise debate in Product Management is nothing new, but one that I have regularly with companies and job seekers. Is it an advantage or disadvantage? Surely if you want to hire a Senior/Principal level Product Manager or any other high-performing IC, the priority must be that you hire them for their Product Management skillset. Domain knowledge can be acquired over time. But more often than not, I notice that high-level IC positions in Product Management require industry or domain knowledge too. And when companies want to hire a Product Leader like a VP of Product or CPO, the domain expertise is of less value, vs exec leadership skills for example. My view is that true Product Management experience is hard to train and if the PM is naturally curious, adaptable, and willing to learn, domain knowledge can be trained. And a Product Management team that is made up of individuals with a variety of backgrounds and experience can only be a good thing. But like all things, there are many scenarios where it depends on the gaps that exist in a company and what is really needed. Are companies missing a trick by prioritizing domain expertise as well as product management expertise? Should they be prioritizing diversity in backgrounds and experience when it comes to hiring Product Management talent? #hiring #recruitment #productmanagement
