How to prepare for your product leadership next step, in defense of managers, and why being technical is an outcome and not an input to Product Management.
Great post Kax! Here's the real question: Do you need have been a good product manager to be an effective product leader?
In my experiences along the way, highly productive product people that have flipped over to leaders have spent so much time in the field that they tend to stay laser focused on the products and have trouble transitioning into good people managers and mentors.
