Aspiring product owner. I have been a PM for 9+ years now. Looking to switch to product owner roles. How to break into those roles? What's the best way? I have completed CSPO certification but unsure what to do next. How to gain the experience?

May I ask why the switch? I’m a PO trying to become PM lol

I suspect by PM they mean project manager?

I would express interest to leadership. Being a PM you should be given the opportunity to maybe shadow a PO in your organization and learn more about the role before you take it on.

I would try to transition to a PO role with your current organization. If that is not feasible or desirable, I would try to transition within the same industry. In addition to your CSPO cert, continue learning about the role (books, youtube, podcasts, etc.). Maybe reach out to POs in your organization to learn more about the role.

Would you mind sharing why you're transitioning from a project manager role to a product owner role?

Hello, I am a junior business administrator working in advisory operations. I have been with the company for 6 months, and was employed along with 2 other colleagues. I have picked the job up really fast and am even doing some “extra curricula’s” I really love my job. However I have recently found out I am being paid the same as an apprentice on my team, I usually do at 3 x the work he does whilst also doing my Cert CII. It has really disheartened me and I feel I should be earning more money
