Thinking of writing goals for my current role (started last month). What are you all doing for your professional development? I already have my MBA, PO/PM and Scrum Master certs.

It depends on how much experience you have had as PO and PM. Aside from getting certifications alone, have you has any real experience as PO/PM. Reason - if not, then focusing on developing PO skills and then PM would be a good focus. If you’re at Sr. PM level, then a higher development focus would be helpful.

I would look into executive leadership if you're already at the Sr. level. Otherwise, certifications that provide proof of your experience and expertise.

I'm trying to define my role as a PO. Feels like every day there is something new.

I’m a boomerang employee and a friend of mine noticed that my company posted a similar job description to mine on indeed 10 days ago. My boss didn’t tell me they were hiring another person in our department (small department - 4 people). Should I be worried? Should I bring it up to my boss? I’m really stressing myself out over it. For reference I would consider myself a top performing employee / everyone was very excited when I boomeranged. Not sure if I’m overthinking (I do that a lot).
