Product Managers, what does your day look like?

No typical day in PM lol. Always context switching between diff responsibilities

Right question would be what’s your week looks like. In a day there are N number of things PMs do.

If I have to answer:

• Start of the week is mostly about what we want to achieve as a team in a week. Setting expectations with other Product PIC and planning sprints.
• Followups from last week in terms of roadmap plans, initiatives, design alignments.
• Mid of the week is more about problem solving, executions.
• End of the week is more about deriving action items for next week and revisions in priorities if any.

Try time-blocking. Dedicate specific hours to deep work vs meetings etc

Depends on phase of product. Discovery phase more research focused, execution phase more project management

Start day with team standup, then mix of stakeholder meetings, user research, and strategy work

30% meetings, 30% docs/specs, 20% data analysis, 20% putting out fires
