Career development in software product development and managementTy Ahmad-Taylor
My Ignite talk on how to develop your career when you are a Product Developer or Manager. Like a Terry Gilliam movie, it starts slowly and then ends in a blinding paroxysm of violence, except for the violence.
Managing projects effectively has become essential in every organisation large or small. The uncertainties of the world business economy, rapidly changing technology, and the intensifying focus on sustainability has driven many organisations to develop specific methods for managing projects and to seek highly qualified and competent people to manage those projects. These driving factors require today’s project managers to accept and adapt to change, lead diverse teams, act as ambassadors for their organisations and deal with a multitude of challenging project stakeholders.
It is clear that Project managers are placed in a unique position. They must balance their roles as leader and manager, interface with multiple types of stakeholders, are often the "face" of their organisation to its customers, and must deal with a seemingly unending stream of challenges to be successful. These challenges and the ability to address them require the project manager to maintain awareness of personal brand of and the impact it will have on project assignments, career opportunity, and the willingness of project teams to work for and support the project manager. As the profession of project management evolves and the demand for competent and value driven project managers increases, personal brand and reputation have become major factors in the criteria used to select and assign people to project leadership positions.
Indispensable Factors
The project manager must develop skills and competencies in several areas to be considered for an assign. In addition there are 4 major factors a project manager must address and continue to develop:
Accomplishability: your ability to achieve and deliver valued results.
Value/cost: the value delivered perception relative to the cost.
Supply/Demand: the market dynamics of your position, skills, etc.
Likeability: how others perceive you.
This presentation addresses the importance of the professional project manager in today’s business environment and the need for the project manager to continually enhance existing skills, adapt to a changing environment, and become a “go to” person in the organisation. Emphasis is placed on understanding the business needs of an organisation, clearly and visibly creating value from a client and supplier view point, and continually developing and managing personal brand.

Welcome to the Program Your Destiny course. In this course, we will be learning the technology of personal transformation, neuroassociative conditioning (NAC) as pioneered by Tony Robbins. NAC is used to deprogram negative neuroassociations that are causing approach avoidance and instead reprogram yourself with positive neuroassociations that lead to being approach automatic. In doing so, you change your destiny, moving towards unlocking the hypersocial self within, the true self free from fear and operating from a place of personal power and love.

What this means for your CV and LinkedIn profile: best practices
1-3 line summary of relevant domain, functional and GM experience can be helpful – know your value
proposition relative to the market
Use a well organized resume format (e.g. HBS template) summarizing the company (with description and
basic metrics if needed), role and success metrics
A “portfolio” of different experiences – across industries, functions can help show well rounded GM and
leadership potential
Describe overall contributions to the business and how it performed – speak as an owner of the
business
LinkedIn profile should reflect full chronology of CV – join relevant groups and associations and get
thought leadership perspectives online – even if just sharing relevant industry pieces
Don’t be perceived as a “hopper” – you need to show trajectory and impact – work to group and explain
short stints caused by strategic exits etc.
Get involved with industry associations, non profit boards, standards committees early – great learning
experience and shows leadership and governance potential
Product management is the new “Brand Management” – i.e. product and platform experience in a digital
company is viewed as “academy” learning experience with a broad 360 remit and impact on the business
– much as P&G brand roles were viewed as great GM grooming roles in the 80s and 90s.
6. Private and Confidential 6
Call and respond
What is executive search, retained search and exclusive search?
Why/when should you take a call? What are the motivations of the recruiter on the other end of the
line?
What uncomfortable questions should you be prepared to answer?
What piqued your interest about this?
What relevant experience do you have for this?
Why are you thinking about leaving? Why did you leave? Were you fired?
What is your current compensation?
Who do you report to? Who are your peers? What is the org structure?
Are you open to relocation?
What is the worst thing I would hear about you?
Who would be your best references?
7. Private and Confidential 7
Interviewing like a GM
While you have one resume you should have a “cover letter” in mind for each opportunity – how does
this role fit with your overall career goals, search strategy, capabilities and interests
Do your research – know the company, organization and find common connections if you can
Be prepared to do a very tight chronology of your background – explaining transitions and major
accomplishments
Expect a competency based interview – be prepared to have stories that show how you work, and that
point to leadership and GM potential
Many companies value both entrepreneurial/growth experience and larger company experience with
scope and complexity. Speak to both if you can – shows versatility and ability to scale
Develop mentors and sponsors who can serve as references – be prepared to share these real time for
big opportunities
Be real – be able to articulate development areas, career mistakes and lessons learned
Be hungry – have passion, ambitious goals
Be collaborative and a team player – this also speaks to leadership potential
Be prepared for tough questions: why did you leave? were you fired? current compensation? will you
relocate? what is the worst thing I would hear about you?
