I really like the idea of building projects but I am also wondering if there is a support system for non-technical professionals to build things?
I see you have different types of projects but many people who want to break into product management don’t have a technical background. How do you see them building live interactive products?
I can always do analysis and may do the design but I am not sure about building at this stage.
@MarcoSilva That’s a great question. We encourage our members to use no-code/ low-code tools to build products. The tools out there are really amazing and people can get started by building things on their own.
Overall, we see this as a two level problem -
Level 1 focus on functional skills - professionals learn the basics of technology, design, marketing and product. As PMs work with cross functional teams, it is always advisable to understand the basics of other functions. The self-building stage with no-code/ low-code tools is for professionals to gain that expertise and also build things that they are passionate about.
Level 2 focus on collaboration skills – A huge part of PMing is about collaboration and influence. This level is about bringing engineers, designers, marketers together to build things and ship products. The goal here is to create a team based learning environment where users learn from one another and rate each others work to build their portfolio.
We are focused on delivering on level 1 at this stage and will be moving to level 2 in the future.
