    What would you like to handle with more confidence?

    Product Managers in our research described the outcomes they wanted:

    • Engineering conversations

      Follow an explanation, restate it accurately and connect it to a product decision

    • Scope and trade-offs

      Form a rough view of dependencies, risk and complexity before commitment

    • Development and release

      Follow a change through development, testing and release

    • Issue investigation

      Reproduce and document a problem before involving engineering

    • Product data

      Pull or verify a simple product answer and recognise when an analyst is needed

    • Bounded building

      Create or change a small testable artefact within an agreed safety boundary

    Leave with language you can use with your manager

    Your PDF will show the one or two areas you want to develop, your current confidence across six areas, the capabilities you want to build next and four questions for a development conversation with your manager.
