A few weeks ago, I came across this blog post on LinkedIn. It was about the product manager’s role as CEO of the product and what should be done so that Product Managers can actually function in that respect. The comments were also equally interesting. Some pointed out that the reference to “CEO” is intended to highlight the leadership behavior expected of an individual in that role, while others felt it was about decision making authority on the lines of what a CEO in a company has. All of these are valid arguments. As can be expected, when titles and glory are involved, the subject can be a little touchy 🙂
