Guide To A High-Paying Career Path In The Digital World

In a recent trends survey, it was found that 13.8% of Product Managers were Project Managers in their previous jobs and 11.8% were Business Analysts. Roles like Business Analysts, Data Analysts, Project Managers or Program Managers are often starting points and with increasing experience across various products, they finally become Product Managers in 4-5 years with almost a 50% increase in their pay. But 5 years seem like a long, long time, doesn’t it?

Of late, there have been many examples where professionals have pursued MBA from premier institutions and gone on to become Product Managers. But shelling out lakhs and spending another 2 years seem like a far cry for most. Some advanced programs in Product Management like this one by AltUni seem like the best alternative to become a PM at a fraction of the time and cost involved.

Roles Leading From Product Manager

From here on, key experiences in owning a product and handling teams are very effective in career growth. Professionals with 10+ years of experience usually take up leadership roles like Head of Product / VP of Product. Some with even more years behind their back take up C-level positions of the Chief Product Officer. Professionals in such positions get full ownership, hold immense responsibility & get paid very handsomely.

Some of the key soft skills that are required for this career growth path in Product Management are prioritization, research, creativity, critical thinking, communication, leadership, diplomacy & team work.

Product Managers need to have a varied set of hard skills including product knowledge, basic proficiency in coding, analytical skills, understanding consumer behaviour, etc. These hard skills along with tools & techniques can make successful product managers out of professionals in any field.
