Bootcamp Journey Week 1

Hello everyone, welcome back to my blog🙋‍♀️. The start of a new phase in my Product Management journey🙂 - After onboarding, I was placed in a team, 10 of us me inclusive on a Slack channel. I came in eager to meet my team mates, we exchanged pleasantries.

First task was to appoint amongst ourselves the team lead and assistant, it took awhile to but eventually we did. Yay!

The project topic for the week came afterwards - when I read it, I just laughed and said to myself now the real work begins 🤣. We had our very first scrum meeting, a good percentage of my team was present sharing their thoughts on the topic at hand - we came up with a framework on how we would do our task. Hearing each other's views, learning from each other was an exciting experience.

We left the meeting with a to do - research and come up with questions for the survey we would carry out using Google form, this will form the early stages of the product's design thinking process. I wore my research hat and went straight to work, lol. Work Schedule.png

Hey, Its Abhishek here from India.

Its great to see that you are going good with the new chapter in your life i.e. "Product Management". I would like to know more of it. I am also an aspiring PM and would like to seek some insights of this field. Currently I'm into Mechanical Engineering Field designing Electric Buses. I also have an experience in Biomedical Industry (overall 4+ yrs of experience). The current job role and responsibilities is quite similar to the PM role. Can you help me in helping to shape my career in PM.

Thanks, Abhishek

Hello Abhishek, nice to meet your acquaintance. Thank you for the kind words.

I would say to add to your years of experience in similar job roles and responsibilities, to go for an internship training where you understand the specifics related to PM role and also portfolio Bootcamp training where you gather practical experience from projects assigned to you. I particularly like the one I'm on, it's online https://lms.terrahq.co/. Do let me know if this helps.

Thanks, Tolu
