How essential are domain expertise in managing a product?
Image courtesy: Fusion VenturesRecently I asked this question on my LinkedIn feed and yet to get a single reply. I have been pondering over it by myelf for some time. If you recollect the core product management skills preached around, those are hardly specific to a domain or industry.What has been your experience as a contributing product manager, or what have you seen in other product managers around?Like in sales, marketing, or accounting, are product management skills portable across domains and indutrries?Cheers,Ranjit
Hey!
Product Management courses will get the ball rolling and add weight to your resume, especially if you build up a portfolio as part of your course. However, you need to understand that this sort of role relies more on industry experience (even if just through internships) and the amount of work you have put in. So don't treat this as a course that will open up doors unless you are willing to thug it out in this uber-competitive field.
Courses like the Upgrad one can be useful. You can get a discount on the course using this referral code: ACQU199
Hope you get your dream job!
