Wow this was a nice watch 😊. I could relate alot… to what you spoke about. I think I am a future product manager but not now. Maybe I still have 2 more years to go before I move into the PM career path

Great tips! I'm transitioning into Business Analysis as well and these are great tips. The fact that I had started building my brand like a business has been so helpful. I love the fact that you were very intentional about your transition, so it made easy on you. Well done🙌

Hello Tobi, I'm glad I stumbled upon your video. I'm currently working as an intern PM at a Telemedicine startup (Utogenx) in Nigeria. I took a training course for 6 weeks in November (at Nsonye, a community that seeks to bridge the gender tech-gap by teaching young women tech skills for free) and built a tech E-library as my Capstone project. I really love product management, but I don't see a lot of Nigerian PM content on here so it's really great to see this. I would love to collaborate with you on video later this year. Oh, and yeah, I have an Engineering background too, from Unilag. Thanks for putting this out there once again.

Thanks a lot

hi Tobi, i just got certified and doing some of the things you mentioned. Building a product does it have to be a working product?

Hello Tobi I just stumbled on your video, and am glad I watched. I am transitioning into product management, reason i came to Youtube to gain knowledge in order to move forward. I am a business woman but lately i crave for a career, be somewhere i can gain experience, learn, grow and impact. With intellectuals. My research led me to PM Now am developing cold feet as i have no experience i have checked out the PM course on coursera. However, I would like to hear from an experienced as you, and my questions goes like this : Can I go into PM with little or no experience? I studied History and international relation so PM is different from what I studied. Also, can i get a few words of advice from you on how to start and figure this out? Thank you.

😮 I didn't realise you changed your YouTube name no wonder I haven't been seeing your videos lately. Just a search on Product Management and your video popped. Woow really missed your content Tobi!
