Ujjwal Trivedi on how a Product Manager is like a spy

Listen Later

What a spy does based on the movies:


  • gathers intel
  • analyzes information and strategizes for the best solution
  • works closely with teams to accomplish their mission
  • calculates risk properly, because one wrong move can be really bad
  • negotiates and persuades to get what they want and need
  • adapts to different countries and cultures that they were assigned in


    • Quite the same as what a product manager does on most days, right?


    This resonates with Ujjwal’s article that there’s quite an overlap between what a spy and a product manager do.
