-: There are lots of different types of product managers.
Some are very, very technical.
Some are really good at talking to customers.
Some are really good at making very precise plans.
Having some sort of key skill like that,
is quite helpful.
So whatever it is.
Lots of times
an unsuccessful product manager is someone who come in
with a set of really strong opinions
and they want to do things their way
and if it's not their way then it's wrong.
Those people typically aren't as successful
as people who listen and talk to other people
in their organization.
Talk to other developers.
Talk to customers.
Aren't afraid to admit they're wrong
and change their thinking.
Sometimes many, many times.
I think that that's a really key skill.
