Hi everyone! For the SalesForce PO’s out there, do you guys do any technical work in your role? I ask because I do not. I oversee all projects within Sales cloud/CPQ and don’t do any technical work on either of them. Main reason I ask is because when it’s my time to leave to another role if one is presented I don’t want to get back into technical work. I like what I do now because it’s a good hybrid between PO/BA.

Are there any recommendations on what I should look at for my next role?

Typically there should be limited technical duties for a product owner. That varies depending on organization.

As far as next role, that’s a tough one. Not a lot of places to go. You have three options. One is to go deeper, provide more capabilities for your team (reporting, training, user support). Two go wider, bring in new products, or (service cloud, marketing cloud, experience, app exchange, etc). Final option is to jump ship. All options should require more FTEs as you can’t do it alone
