Like anything, it's just a title. However, how I view it is as someone that is responsible for a "product." A product can be a module, function or full fledged widget, but the product manager is responsible for the item itself. They don't necessarily worry about sales and exactly 'how' things get done. But they have a responsibility for it so they better have an idea of what's going on. I consider myself a PM and this is what I do: Srum Lead Sprint Planning / Release Management "Tier 3" Support Documentation Editor Question Answerer Guy (Why does this piece of software do this and why is this link not blue?) I'm also the liaison between management and the engineering staff. There is some more official type stuff on wikipedia. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Product_manager http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Product_manager
