Technical Product Manager [f/m/x]
What is your best attribute?
Some people are naturally creative, others know how to talk to people. Then, there are the brave ones…These are people that believe in themselves, take over responsibility when others around them are hesitating, are constantly focusing on adding value to everything they do. These are people that can work in a team, helping and asking for help because they know it needs a team to deliver great work, they know that innovation, evolution is not a straight line. They are the ones who believe in themselves and are open and positive at the same time.
If you are one of these people, then read on.
Otherwise, thank you for reading.
