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??

Was in a similar boat. Switched 5-6 months ago after thinking through.

Product either merges with tech or revenue in the long run across most Indian cos. I chose revenue side. More like GM role, owning profitability/ margin.

What's your overall yoe and comp?

Same boat!! Was thinking of switching to the design side of things or pursue a completely different role like data science. Both involve a learning curve
