Justin Chew on common misconceptions about Product Management in tech

from Product Management Chat · host Jessylyn Jonsay

To become a good Product Manager in tech: You need to be “technically trained”. Meaning, trained in software engineering You need to learn Scrum or Agile Both are common misconceptions of most of us essentially So.. it’s been amazing to sit and talk to Justin Chew as he debunks those misconceptions. And shared how can non-tech folks *successfully* transition into tech as a PM. Successfully, meaning, no need to take a pay cut or start with an associate role :) Also a fun fact: the aspiring Product Managers that he coached came from unusual backgrounds (e.g. airforce, army, civil service, etc.) Any questions, you may reach out to Justin on LinkedIn— https://www.linkedin.com/in/jcyw/ For a more tailored product coaching, you may check out Justin’s website— www.justinPMcoach.tech
