I immediately had flashbacks of my time at Amazon as an engineer, working with some of the most talented product managers I’ve ever worked with… and ironically, also some of the most frustrating.

- Willingness to improve your technical skills
- Ability to bridge the pm<->engineering communication gap
- Having an “enabling” vs. “telling” mindset

I share a bunch of personal stories on each of these in the latest edition of the Skiplevel newsletter where I answer questions directly from YOU about technical skills/knowledge, tips on collaborating with devs, and tips for becoming more technical.
Ask me ANYTHING and I'll respond in an upcoming newsletter! Subscribe here -> newsletter.skiplevel.co
S/O to @ddudchock3 for the awesome question! 😎
