In this audio interview I speak with the author of the blog Purist Product Management: Aziz Musa. I had the opportunity to work with Aziz for a year at Reed Business Information and found him to be an inspirational and focussed product manager. During the interview I review Aziz’s:
academic and professional background before becoming a Product Manager;
his experiences at Last Minute.com;
the strategic element of the job;
how best to interact with the customers;
the optimum number of products a typical Product Manager should manage;
how to keep up with the latest trends and technologies and
the top 3 attributes needed to enter the Product Management arena.
This blog is designed to give tips on various aspects of the Product Manager’s and Product Marketing Manager’s role including interview and career suggestions. It aims to provide thoughts, research and opinions on product planning, roadmaps, product life cycle, innovation techniques, product strategy & executions and product development processes. The author hopes that Hardware, Software, Online, IT and Technical Product Managers (PM) find the resources on this blog a help in their professional development.
