About this episode:
I recently had an engaging conversation with Colin Lernell, who has held product leadership roles at companies like Patreon, Udacity, and Noom.
We discussed the state of the tech job market in 2024 and explored what product managers need to excel in the current environment.
Our conversation also touched on the significance of cultural fit during the hiring process, the ongoing debate between the roles of Program Managers and Product Operations (highlighting the mixed opinions on their impact on organizational culture, including perspectives from Brian Chesky and various organizations that either thrive with or criticize the use of Program Managers).
Finally, we delved into the emergence of the "AI Product Manager" role, analyzing its implications and significance in today's tech landscape.
