They help execute these ideas within a business setting, ensuring that product development aligns with customer expectations and company goals as well as communicate customers’ needs and explain how they align with the product's mission and vision. Some of the most important aspects of a product manager role is to secure buy-in from internal stakeholders on which features to prioritize and ship as well as translate product strategy into actionable steps for the product and development teams.

Do you need a BA in development/programming or a similar role to become a product manager?
No, many product managers come from diverse backgrounds that have little to do with development. Relevant skills and experience in product management are more important than a specific degree.
What is the main requirement for landing a product manager job?
Relevant work experience. Having a background in engineering is a plus but not a necessity. Demonstrating your ability to manage products successfully is key.
Can you become a product manager with no experience?
With the right networking skills and plenty of learning and dedication, it's possible. Starting in related roles and building a strong understanding of the product lifecycle can pave the way. However, be prepared to demonstrate transferrable skills that will be useful in a product manager role.
