Matt LeMay joins us remotely discussing how to find your way through the product management woods. Let’s chat with a career map maker that knows the way into the executive suite from the first days as a product manager. There are so many different paths into and around product management, whether you want to serve as an individual contributor, a manager, an executive, or a consultant. Matt will talk to us about how you can chart your own path, the challenges you can expect, and the skills and behaviors that will help you find your way.
