The best piece i got recently was dont be your own worst critic. I'm too hard on myself sometimes and I don't think i'm doing all that well even though I am. I suppose I'm too much of a perfectionist.

Ohh can you explain what you mean by don’t let Slack be your to-do list?

It’s easy to open slack and start responding to a bunch of inbound messages but that could take you away from the work you actually need to prioritize

Focus on results not activity

You’ll always have to prove yourself. There will always be somebody new you’ll need to convince. Don’t expect that to ever go away.

Please suggest. Should I resign and wait for them to send me offer?

I'm two thirds through the PMA Core Certification, and the info is great but the tests are a joke. They need to contract with an educator that specializes in testing and assessment to come in and develop exams that actually measure if you know the material. The bad test design devalues the certification. Not to zero, but I definitely will not be proud to have earned it. It just means I had $1300 and sat through 15 hours of video lectures.

Started as product manager in a start-up with a too nice culture- it's all groupthink and the product direction is suffering. Need to get people to be assertive without being an asshole- need advice

any insight into how a pmm skillset is different from a brand strategist one? of course the pmm applies insights to and influences the product, but it seems like a lot of the core elements - research, understanding the user, generating insights, developing messaging and angles to speak to them, etc are super similar. interested in transitioning and I want to understand where my gaps are!

Pros: 50k bump, company is full remote, no time tracking software, unlimited PTO, 10k in quarterly bonuses, vertical move in responsibility and title, will set me up for future roles in different companies with the title I am looking for (so strategic move)

Cons: Its a startup, the solution they offer is adjacent to my desired industry, its a very small team so I wouldn’t grow my network as much, tech stipend for new laptop (but they don’t provide a work one)
