I was asked what kind of work you are doing. My answer is "product". As for product managers, interactive design, user experience, and other titles, I feel that I am not doing anything about them, the product is sold only from the current market. The ability that a qualified product person must possess is comprehensive.
What does the product manager do? In terms of experience, it is to clarify the core users of the product and obtain the requirements, determine the requirements and complete the product prototype and flowchart, and actively cooperate with technicians in the development process to ensure the normal progress. At the beginning, I was always fascinated by studying the use of various tools and trying to make various interactions. After such a period of time, we will find that tools are only used to better express the logic of thinking, and understanding the real needs of users is a real skill. It also requires accumulated industry and product experience to help complete this judgment. In the quote book, "The control capability of users' core needs is a kind of mind-reading, and a kind of capability that should be possessed by product managers like God. It is necessary to capture users' core or essential needs, not just users' surface needs, but to find out the real needs hidden behind behaviors and expressions ." Whether it is a new product or an old product transformation, it is a functional point or the entire product. Sometimes it looks like a very small point, involving all aspects.
Is it a product or something? Whether it is interactive design or user experience, we need to think about how to build products from different aspects, closely focusing on the product core, and at which stage we should also remind what is the ultimate goal, there are two different attitudes: product, not work.
The book is read hundreds of times and its meaning is self-existent. The product manager's ability summarized in the book is really 12-point comprehensive. To be able to possess all kinds of capabilities, you still need to make a lot of effort in practice. I am sure you have to work on the paper, after knowing it, you still need to do it yourself to get the real taste.
