[R1] Why are you interested in product management? Flashcards
Opening P1 Young Passion
Ever since I was young, I’ve always been fascinated with the concept of turning abstract ideas into tangible realities. I remember constantly coming up with various ideas and then eagerly diving into the process of figuring out how to actually build them. This wasn’t just about the creativity of imagining new products or solutions; it was the thrill of solving the problem—determining what resources were needed, what steps to take, and how to navigate challenges along the way.
Becoming a PM is a natural progression
Becoming a product manager feels like a natural progression of that passion. It’s a role that not only allows me to bring innovative ideas to life but also challenges me to think critically about development strategies, resource allocation, and problem-solving in a real-world context. It excites me to think about working at the intersection of technology, business, and user experience, driving projects from inception to launch. I see it as an opportunity to apply my innate curiosity and solution-oriented mindset on a larger scale, making an impact by turning visionary ideas into products that meet and exceed customer needs
