As a project manager, one of the most important decisions you can make is choosing the right project to work on. This decision can have a significant impact on your career development and the success of your team and organization.
In this episode, we are with Rohit, a product management professional with a history of working at technology start-ups. Previously, he invested in B2B SaaS start-ups at a VC fund. We'll be discussing two different projects that Rohit, a new product manager, has been tasked to choose from. The first project involves creating a simplified product that can be sold as a SaaS platform to improve margins, while the second project involves building an internal dynamic pricing engine to increase margins. While both projects sound promising, it's crucial to consider various factors, such as feasibility, sustainability, and ethics.
Learn how I help Rohit understand the intricacies of each project, the potential challenges and opportunities, and ultimately recommend Rohit to focus on Project A to build a product from scratch and gather valuable insights through customer and user discovery. Tune in now to listen to this engaging and informative conversation.
