Philosophy #1: How to Be a Great Product Manager


Listen Later

With long histories in product management specifically in the games industry, we have a REAL discussion on what it takes to be a great PM.  

Hardcore and real talk from guys who have worked on very successful products. I led the #1 top-grossing game King of Avalon plus a lot of other shit. Brett was a lead PM on Zynga Poker which was contributing 22% of Zynga's revenue at the time.   Real talk you won't get anywhere else. This talk is for hardcore PMs only!   

Follow this channel if you want to hear more philosophy on current and important issues in the F2P games industry.
