Thanks Patrick for creating this video. I am wondering If I can get your thoughts on this - I recently discovered product management but my impression so far is that I can be paid well (sweet sweet tech salary), don't need to code, don't need any special certifications/MBA/MS Computer Science (or any specific degrees for that matter) or specific experiences. Seems too good to be true. Wondering if I am missing something?

Awesome video, this works for a very broad spectrum of products both tangible and intangible (software). Could you make another video dedicated to software products specifically geared towards industry.

Hey thanks for your question M. Ahmed! That's a great idea. Any in particular you'd like to see?

Great video guys! I have a question. When is a code related product. Should the Product Manager care about the code quality and maintainability (LCOM, ABC Score, Complexity, Code Coverage)?

[@UniversityAE]

Hey Sebastian! Of course the Product Manager should car about the code quality and maintainability, but they're usually delegating that concern to the Project Managers and developers. They're concerned with the direction the code is headed, and if it's hard to maintain or scale, that's a big problem.
