Working with product managers

www.seangoedecke.com/working-with-product-managers

At its worst, a product manager relationship is like an unhealthy family: driven by condescension, emotional manipulation, lies, and mistrust. This isn’t because product managers are bad people! It’s because the structure of the relationship creates conflict. Both sides must make commitments (about the technical system or goals of the organization) that are (a) often wrong, and that (b) the other side is unable to independently verify. To avoid the trap, both sides have to be generous, willing to trust each other in their areas of expertise, and most importantly competent.
