Life of a #ProductManager. Happy Friday! (via Work Chronicles)

From Lenny Rachitsky's newsletter — the rise of #productmanagement over the past 25 years. TL;DR Product management has seen massive growth for 20+ years, followed by a plateau over the past couple of years. Numbers-wise, there are about 450,000 active PMs in the U.S. right now, with 2500 to 4500 being hired each month. Essentially, the PM role is not in hypergrowth anymore, but it's also not shrinking.

Missed our LinkedIn Live on how to influence without authority as a #productmanagement leader? Read on for some key insights from the discussion 💡 “The way I see it, influence isn't about control. It's about inspiring others, building trust, and navigating the complexities of interpersonal dynamics.” — Hubert Palan, CEO, Productboard "Sometimes I like to say I'm trying to steer the aircraft carrier in the right direction. It can be little small movements that in the end make a big impact on where you're going. And so I'm trying to provide that compass and direction rather than being the one steering every single movement on the ship.” — Sarah Payne, CPO, Archy "Are you as a product manager able to influence all these different groups towards a common goal? Maybe by using different things like data, your persuasion skills, or interpersonal skills.” — Sanket Kavishwar, Director, Product Management, Relyance AI "There's two ways you can have authority in your role. The first is in your actual position and your influence relative to other people at the company. The second is in the work you generate...Because the work itself can influence people around you, even if you do not have authority over everybody who's listening and all of your stakeholders." — Leigh Katharine Smith, PhD, Head of Research, Typeform "To have influence without authority is to understand what the other person's job is and how it fits in. And reciprocally, they need to understand yours. So it's a two-way street because I think fundamentally with disclosure and an understanding of the perspectives, you're going to be able to influence a lot better without the authority you'd like." — John Carter, Founder & Principal, TCGen, Inc Watch the episode on demand here 👉 https://lnkd.in/gVF9KKAG
