100%. I've seen junior PMs fast track their careers by literally just always framing their work in terms of business outcomes. One of my reports went from entry-level to senior in 2 years by always tying her projects back to user growth or revenue impact, even if it was just bug fixes or UI tweaks. definitely a skill worth nailing early in your career.
- tux3 2y agoThat does not seem like what I want the company I work at to optimise for. Being the best at turning bug fixes or UI tweaks into a flashy story. This signals myopic focus on apearances over real world outcomes.
- Aloha 2y agoIn the end, without successful business outcomes, there would be no money to pay the paychecks we all need. Its great if you're a technical person who has a clear vision for your product, if its not a product anyone else needs however, its not gonna do much good for you.
- justinl33 2y agoI hear you. Imo it's still a tradeoff/balancing act between business outcomes and your own career
- silentsea90 2y ago+1 on this, I've been pushing my team to measure impact more. Else we remain a team of high value that remains unrealized and therefore underfunded, which hurts us all.
- exe34 2y agohow do they measure the business outcome of their tweaks, is that a/b testing?
