Hi Ladies, First time posting here. Do you have any advice on how you deal with anxiety in meetings? I find myself getting very nervous in meetings that I don’t have time to prepare for. I then tend to be very wordy instead of sharing my point or statement concisely.

Do referrals help if you already got an interview call?

What technical skills should product managers have?

Hello Ladies! What tips would you share with someone breaking into or wanting to break into product management?

Has anyone else worked with a manager that’s difficult to get a gauge on whether you’re meeting expectations? Tiny actions suggest that he doesn’t really like me/gel with me. How does one cope with hard to read bosses where you constantly feel like you’re not doing enough to the point that I now have anxiety about my work and wondering if my head is first on the chopping block if time came. When asked for feedback I don’t get much constructive criticism.

Our company went through an exercise of redefining product roles - from business analyst, product owner, product manager to assoc pm, pm, senior pm etc. The concept is everyone with same skills - with different competency levels. My question is - what about interest? I am energized by execution, not so much strategy. Is product management for me, or should I be looking at other career paths? Note: I am not overly ambitious, but do want to have a good salary for my retirement savings😉

I’ve been onboarding at a new company for a month. I’ve been assigned to PM something a director in another department originally proposed, but I am really struggling to work out how to deal with her territorialism and defensiveness. She is insisting on being in on every conversation I have with a stakeholder, gets angry if I answer a question asked directly of me, and shoots down literally everything I’ve suggested. Her team will do most of the implementation. Any ideas on how to “manage up”?

I just joined a new company that has many offices. I’m in Canada and plan to move to US eventually. I wasn’t planning to but it came out in my meeting with my new manager. How screwed am I? Does this look like I’m planning my out already?

What other roles besides delivery manager and product manager would share similar skill sets? I’m looking for a new job but there are few red flags which says I might not be the right fit for the PM role so want to explore options.
I enjoy creating solutions for customer problems and have a tech and UX as well as delivery background before landing to the current PM role, and I think there are things I am quite good at the role. (Cont in comments)

I am doing a product case study as part of product manager interview and have been asked to choose a product I use. I was thinking of fishbowl, but should I, or could the choice become a concern for them to hire me?

What are recommended places to post jobs if you're trying to get a diverse group of people to apply? It's important to me to have a balanced team, but sometimes fear LinkedIn or traditional routes might overlook women or minority applicants. I'm likely going to be hiring in 2022 on the product management, product marketing, product design, and technical/data product management front. Thank you for your guidance.
