Software Engineer to product manager
Is there anyone who changed his/her role from developer/engineer to product management without MBA? If yes please help with steps
Can a non-engineer (me) become a product manager?
If yes what are the steps?
Yes, you need to find right place yourself. Not all pms are good with design or numbers or strategy.
You need to be good at one thing and double down on it. Sometimes as a fresher it might not be easy to get into pming. It’s important to start off somewhere, and transition later into prod (if you’re unable to make a cut as a fresher).
Purely speaking from a freshers perspective, one thing I really look out for is outliers in your journey so far. Like extra curricular you did and really aced it or a side project that was really cool. Other thing is your basic grasp of the market (curiosity to explore new products, new business models etc) and the last thing is insights you get from the data. Anyone can do basic pivots and sql query, what’s missing in most cases is the insights.
Hope this helps. Good luck.
If I am a marketer (I have experience in the growth side of the business) then can I turn into a product manager?

A non-engineer with 0 workex; will join my MBA second year at an old IIM in June. Have done a couple of internships, I want to get into product management. How difficult is it for a non-engineer? How do I go about it? 😄
I m currently working in TCS (ninja profile) with 5 months experience. My goal is to become product manager in future. Can someone guide what to do? Is it necessary to do MBA for that or is there any other way?
