As the year wraps up, I again attempted by annual century. 100 miles on the road to clear my head and reflect. This year I came up short in miles but not on take aways. Looking back to the beginning of career and understanding what’s made me successful and contrasting that to my short comings in finding the next step in my career, I think I have a better understanding of the job market and how I fit into it. My roles and responsibilities were never anything that could be contained in a job description. If you were to list my responsibilities into a single page, none of it would make sense to anyone on the outside. What kind of project manager discusses surface transitions with designers and gets into the weeds of manufacturing while talking about deadlines to kick off tooling? What engineer is delving deep into defining product road maps and identifying market trends? What kind of product manager is in the trenches with the creative team gathering and creating assets for packaging? As unrelated as all of this seems, the underlying theme here that I think everyone misses is VERSATILITY and EFFICIENCY. The intangibles. Team efficiency isn’t something that I have ever seen in a job description nor is it something I think a hiring manager has ever thought of. It wasn’t even a thing before I moved on from my role as an industrial designer to serve the greater accessories product development team. The idea grew from the typical budget cuts where travel is usually the first to go. Having built strong relationships with our international team and supplier base, I was our designated hitter batting on behalf our design and product management teams. And if you’ve worked with me, you know we’re getting every project across Homeplate on time. As time went on, my versatility helped lighten the load on the entire team allowing them thrive and grow within their respective roles. Again, not something that can be a nice bullet point on a resume or job description. So, to any of the recruiters or hiring managers reading this, I may not hit all of your requirements in your job description right now, but I can guarantee that you won’t be able to capture everything that I bring to the team in the future.

I help innovators 10x what they can charge and get them those new clients easily | Not SEO, not PPC, not a course, not telemarketers | Native Founder 🪶✊🏽| Girl Dad 👧🏻 | Growth Seeker 🚀
You're a brilliant engineer, consistently delivering impressive technical solutions. However, there's more to consider than just innovation, isn't there? I'll let you in on a secret - the real MVPs are the ones who can seamlessly blend technical brilliance with the subtler arts of project leadership, client relations, and business growth. It's like being a master chef who not only whips up mind-blowing dishes but also runs a wildly successful restaurant. Think about it - your expertise is the main course, sure. But what really sets you apart is how you present and deliver that expertise as an unforgettable dining experience for your clients. It's all about setting the table just right, guiding them through the menu of possibilities, and leaving them so satisfied they can't wait to come back for more. I'm talking crisp project management skills that keep those complex engineering initiatives running like a well-oiled machine. I'm talking client communication superpowers that build trust and make your partners feel truly heard. And let's not forget the business development genius that keeps that project pipeline overflowing. So don't just showcase your tech talents on that LinkedIn profile - highlight the whole package! Share those jaw-dropping engineering feats, but frame them through the lens of the project leadership, client whispering, and business-attracting powers you flexed to make them a reality. The world needs more renaissance engineers who can design the next big thing while wowing clients and driving unstoppable growth. Why hide those invaluable skills under a bushel? Let your expertise shine from every angle, my friend. The opportunities (and impressed connections) will be lining up around the block. Just like they do for the true masters who blend art, science, and business into one delectable experience. #engineering #engineer #b2bmarketing #innovation #electricalengineer #networkengineer #systemengineer

The Sydney Opera House, a marvel of modern architecture, was more than just a building; it was a product of a grand vision meant to symbolize a nation’s cultural aspirations. However, the journey from its conceptual blueprint to its completion tells a profound story about the interplay and frequent clash between the visionary and the project manager. Jørn Utzon’s design won an international competition in 1956, dazzling with its futuristic sail-like shells. His vision was bold and complex, pushing the boundaries of contemporary architectural products and engineering practices. The Opera House was meant to be an innovative product in the form of a building that would not only serve as a performance space but also stand as an iconic image of Australia itself — a product that delivered extraordinary aesthetic and cultural value. As construction commenced, project management took the lead. It was responsible for the actual delivery of this ‘product.’ This meant effectively managing timelines, budgets, construction methodologies, and human resources. However, the groundbreaking nature of the design led to significant practical challenges. The technology necessary to realize the roof shells didn’t exist yet, leading to massive delays and budget overruns. For those in software product companies, this echoes the clash that often occurs between design (desirability), product (marketability), and engineering (feasibility). The climax of the project occurred when these two management domains clashed dramatically. Costs escalated from an estimated AU$7 million to an astronomical AU$102 million, and the project timeline extended far beyond its original scope. Political and public pressures mounted, ultimately leading to Utzon’s resignation in 1966. Utzon’s resignation was the critical turning point where the necessity for a balanced approach between visionary product management and pragmatic project management became painfully clear.

It's not always about being 'conventional' and fitting the stereotype! I admit, I don't know a whole lot about the NFL but the hard work and passion this guy has is truly incredible! This idea also applies to the professional world of engineering and hiring... While we all want to hire great engineers or architects, the real difference-makers are those who work hard and share mirror your values. As an engineering consultant, I always tell my clients to look for these qualities in their potential hires. Let's focus on more than just qualifications and experience. Let's prioritize work ethic and cultural fit to truly elevate our businesses. #development #engineering #architecture #superbowl #mahomes

Someone said the portfolio should be an executive summary and not a detailed report. I believe this approach helps to create portfolio better. Again, hiring managers don't have too much time to go through in details till they are attracted and convinced you're good and your work is outstanding. #design #dailydesigndose #portfolio #hiringmanager

Multi-Passionate Full Time Working Mum / Retirement Living Design Manager Specialise in ECI / Mental Wellness Mentor & Burnout Specialist / Feminine Leadership Mentor / International Speaker / Author / Podcast Host
What Does a Design Manager Do? Many people in the industry may be against what I'm about to say... I don't build buildings... I didn't build businesses... I didn't build systems... I build Strategies, Team and People as a Design Manager, I see myself as the bridge that bridges the visions and skill sets between clients, user groups, consultants and construction teams together. We are the main channel of communication, strategies, and management of all the moving pieces that would allow the vision to be buildable and compliant in an industry that is becoming more complex each day whilst holding the vision. This is more about the people than anything else. If we can inspire the people, put together amazing teams, bring out their best and support them through tough times, then we can create a successful project. As a mentor, I will do the same! before we work on your career, your expirations, your business and your brand. We first work on you as a person!

What made me choose technical product management as a career? As a civil engineer and project manager in construction for 5 years, I've always been passionate about building things and seeing the results in reality. But I also wanted to work on products that would have a more direct impact on people's lives. That's why I chose technical product management. I can still remember when I was a kid, I loved taking apart old electronics and trying to figure out how they worked. I also loved building things, from LEGO creations to simple computer programs. I guess I've always been fascinated by technology and how it can be used to solve real-world problems. In technical product management, I get to use my skills and experience to build products that people love to use. I get to work with engineers, designers, and other stakeholders to bring new products to market and improve existing products. I'm also excited about the potential of technology to solve some of the world's biggest problems. I believe that technical product managers can play a critical role in using technology to make the world a better place. Here are a few specific reasons why I'm excited about technical product management: I love building things that people love to use. I want to create products that make people's lives better, whether it's by making them more efficient, more productive, or more entertained. I want to work on products that have a real impact. I want to work on products that make a difference in the world, whether it's by helping to solve climate change, improve healthcare, or education. I want to be challenged. Technical product management is a challenging field, but that's what excites me. I love learning new things and working on complex problems. I want to work with a talented team. Technical product managers work with engineers, designers, and other stakeholders to bring products to market. I'm excited to work with some of the smartest and most creative people in the world. I believe that technical product management is the perfect career for me because it allows me to use my skills and experience to build products that make a real difference in the world. I'm excited to see what the future holds for me in this field. #technicalproductmanagement #productmanagement #technology #innovation #impact
