Every time MD replies "jumping into the slides now", I need to hug my stuffed animal so tight to manage my stress. AND I'm 35 already.

Hey...good work! I read through the content, it's a good start I'd like to suggest a few tweaks before we share this...quick call? 😈

Script the talk track and get to what success is, what we want to communicate on paper before you start a single slide. Much more hands-on story boarding, and frequent iterations/check ins before you go too far, or get surprised the night before the meeting.

That would be my approach. But as they say life happens, unintentional incompetence happens, poor time management happens despite the best of intentions.

I have absolutely no idea what this means

Yeah was just a joke my bad

OP - is this reaction specific to one MD or any senior person reviewing your work? I'm an MD, and I don't think any of my folk react like this when I review their work, but I'm also not one to bite someone's head off or belittle them if I need to make changes to something.

I'm sorry you feel so anxious. I hope anyone in management treats you with respect even if they are critiquing your work, and that over time your confidence grows, but until then, if hugging your stuffed animal makes you feel better while you wait, go for it.

I am Product Owner, and have an opportunity to change my Title to "Product Manager". The actual work I'm doing will not change significantly, it's just a Title change, since I've been working less and less with the scrum teams and doing more product analysis over the last year. My main goal with this is to ensure this looks good on my CV. My thought is a Product Manager role seems more senior to a product owner. Any thoughts on this and any advice on how to approach this? I'm based in London.
