How Do Product Managers and UX Designers Work Together?

[@PoemBehera]

Thank you for the video. I am working with the UX designer and facing the similar confusion that our roles are somewhat similar but this video was helpful to give the conclusion that I should focus on a larger context and let him user his expertise to get a good UI version.

Great explanation! As a junior UX designer this was helpful. Sometimes I don’t know where my responsibilities end; especially when I don’t understand the all over product oversight a PM has at a certain moment. Then I feel the urge to contribute to the allover vision.

[@ViktorEngelbert]

Do you have any PM frameworks to recommend?

[@RahulSinha15]

Thanks, good explanation

They both can work together to run workshops that can help them solve tougher bigger problems.

Nothing worse than having a PM come in and claim the product where they contributed nothing except writing stories/tasks in Azure for the dev team. PM's usually come to me (UX team) for solutions and they do not understand (nor write up) the requirements. In my mind, the UX team should own it since they do all the work to make (and test) the product.

[@rokiburrahmanshaan]

I totally agree with you. This is what happens every time.

[@vishalshah9619]

What you are describing isn't normal of a PM. PMs are supposed to write requirements enough to provide direction to dev team on what to build (not 'HOW' to build).

[@prashanthn9887]

Lol not all pms are like that. Without the directions of what each functionality does ux designers are dummy.. they just know to design but the business understanding and features needed in terms of how the process should run comes from the product manager..

Actually, one of the first thing you learn when starting as a PM is to not take credit for any of the work at all, instead always congratulate dev and UX teams, because that helps you build better relationships, and also if you are already the responsible for the initiative (like, if anything goes wrong you will be blamed), there's really no need to take credit for anything, people already know that you worked on that product. So that PM stealing credit is just wrong.

Stop using your hands so much, its so distracting and annoying!
