To Be A Product Manager | Week 47
This journal helps me improve 1% every day…
Welcome to Week 47 of
To Be A Product Manager
This is the first work week of my 2018, a little bit busy but productive. I spend most of my time on redesigning a product, and I hope after a year of practice and learning about PM skills, I can finally craft a product that I will be proud of.
Meanwhile, as usual, we had an annual product meeting, which taking a look on the things we』ve done, as well as the mistakes we』ve made in 2017.
How to communicate between teams and make sure every one is on the same page?
How to build a product with a mature solutions and systematic environment?
How to analyse and research a phenomenon or trend, and make it a potential business possibility?
I also talked about my understanding about product management, which includes personal competence(PM skills), emotional intelligence and passion fit.
My mentor said he may rate me at Tencent level 2.2 or 2.3 (there are 4 levels for each position, and each level has 3 sub levels). We schedule to have a 1on1 meeting next week.
What I』m pondering
A year ago, I packed up my stuff, left home and moved to Shenzhen without knowing anyone. Looking back I never regret, but only wish I push myself more harder to do what I want to.
I』m able to pay my rent, eat what I want, buy the tech devices I want and travel to some places I love. I』m satisfied, indeed.
But I hope I can be more patience with outcomes and achievements in the near future. 2018, instead of talking or even blogging about it, I need put more time into work and take actions.
Yesterday, after I post my last review of 2017, I closed my newsletter. Not too many people in China read email and the editing takes a ton of time, but I will keep posting here on Medium and Linkedin. Let』s just start from here.
2018, be a motivational doer.
My name is Zake Zhang, a VR product manager based in Shenzhen, China. I write weekly product journal and reflection.
Thanks for reading and let』s keep on hacking!
Warm Regards,
Zake
