2020 has been the year of exceptional challenges and changes for businesses across the globe.
The coronavirus pandemic accelerated digital adoption by major firms by as much as 5 years.
As firms transition to a digital world, they require Product Managers to help them navigate this change.
While the job of a PM has always been important, in 2020, this function became crucial like never before.
Here is a quick recap of some of the key changes that this role had to go through the year 2020.
Embracing virtual collaboration: A product manager’s job always involved collaboration. But in 2020, it moved to virtual largely which wasn’t easy for this role.
Expertise in digital: Be it any industry, today’s PM is expected to have digital know-how. And by know-how, we don’t mean the basic familiarity but proper expertise.
