Back in November Tom talked with Chris Boyd, start-up advisor, mentor, and one of the wisest people we know working in product management. For over five years Chris has been the head of product for Built Technologies who recently announced a series C round worth $88M.  

Tom and Chris talk about Chris's transition from project manager to product manager and play a game of "spontaneous product development" to create a product to disrupt the U.S. education market. They also talk about the signs of a healthy product and how Built Technology is creating an ecosystem for construction finance and lending by automating manual processes and consolidating data. Finally, Tom and Chris talk about the profession of product management and where it's going, why business savvy is a growing need for the best candidates, and how Chris views getting inspiration from competitors.
