Hi Khalidat, I won’t say I am ‘experienced experienced’ but I can speak to how I measure my growth as a product manager. 📌 Define your goals: Like we have OKRs and metrics for our business and product goals, we should also have one for ourselves. For me, that’s seeing my contributions in real time and how it impacts both business and user goals. This also includes upskilling and becoming a better person and product manager. 📌 Have a journal where you put down your contributions and its impact. This is formed from the different things I have done and what tops it for me is seeing my product serve user needs which in turn drive business goals. 📌 Internally, review and checkin sessions with line managers also helps to identify how one is doing. 📌The little compliments from colleagues also doesn’t go unnoticed and being recognized for doing great work. All these come from having your own personal/professional goals and growth strategy you can use to measure how you’re doing. What’s however important is if you’re growing in your role that is moving up the ladder. Ps: I’d like to hear from my other leads by the way. 🙏🏾
