Have you asked to function as a PM/BA for some smaller projects with your current employer? That's a great way to earn project management experience.

The Google Project Management course/certification offers a good overview of traditional product management tasks and documentation.

I was just talking to a younger friend who goes to Cal and It seems like the kids these days hate FAANG or at least Amazon and Facebook are not desired at all. I personally don’t see too many issues working at either Amazon or Facebook because I work at Deloitte where I’m sure we have many questionable clients and worked in financial services before. Curious on whether people are thinking about the ethics of their exit company when deciding to move?

Hello small business owners! How many of you have an exit plan in place to harvest the wealth you’ve built and make sure your family is taken care of? Stats show that the vast majority of business owners have never thought to make a plan.

At my firm we always tell clients “Everyone leaves their business eventually. Whether you do it standing up or lying down is up to you!”

I have been in Product Management even before the term Product Management was so prevalent. I have initiated ideas for new products to align with company strategy and goals, designed and managed the development of the products, and enabled delivery of product to the market. Since most of these are B2B products, delivery would include a phased-production rollout to those customers, based on their roles, locations etc. I have developed both software and data products in the healthcare and social
