(this is no advice on how to switch, feel free to skip) Hahah. You might belong well, and maybe just be better than PMs. Atleast you know the hard facing reality of how difficult it is to sell something. Apart from that PM world is a lot about fake gyaan Dena and almost very less substance.. You might add perfect substance by knowing exactly what would sell better and imbibing that into product development. Try it out brother and let me know if it works out... I am curious.

Role Transition - From Customer Success/KAM to Product Manager

Hi All, would love to hear your thoughts/ideas/strategies on how to switch from a Senior Customer Success Manager role to a Product/ Project Manager role. Brief background - Total Work-Ex 9 years (2.5 years in IT services pre MBA + 6.5 years in Sales/KAM/Customer Success post MBA). Recently have switched few companies in search of better roles/compensation and that also reflects in a negative way in resume. Not able to get even an interview call while applying for PM roles. All suggestions are welcome. Thanks.

Where to go after Product???

Hey folks, I'm wondering what kinda role I should pursue next after product management. I'm done with this role, works vary from company to company and team to team. It's tough to make people understand the difference between pre-PMF products & mature products, and how the metrics impact vary across the spectrum. And this completely changes the equation of your appraisal or your promotion as well. I don't see myself working in the same kind of role after 5 years. So I'm wondering what kinda role I should look out for? My general interests are more analytics & strategy centric. What do you guys think??

Transition to a Product Role

Hey. I have close to 6 years of Experience in Sales and Customer centric roles but recently I have developed an interest in Product Development. For reference, I have an Engineering degree in Computer Science and MBA as well. A few questions for clarity: 1. Is it possible to make this transition into a Product role at this stage of my career? 2. If I want to teach myself the skills of a product manager, how should I start and what resources should i refer to, to begin with that can start the learning process?
