Lead with curiosity. Deliver with tenacity.
The DNA of a Product Manager explores one of the most multifaceted roles in modern organisations. Product management is an odd job, and that is exactly what gives it its strength. Drawing on fifteen years of building B2B software products, leading teams and navigating the realities of product work, Paul Verheijen reveals the structure behind the ambiguity.
At the heart of the book is a simple but powerful metaphor: the DNA of a Product Manager as a double helix. One strand represents the commercial dimension. The other represents the technical dimension. The traits that connect them define exceptional Product Managers: analytical, tenacious, curious and goal oriented.
