Zero foundation, how to switch to product manager?

Prototype design: under WIN system: AXURE is enough;

Mind map: under WIN system: Mindmanager, Xmind personally recommends mindmanager;

Flowchart: Although AXURE can also draw flowcharts, I personally suggest using VISIO.

Project management: Project, the best project management software;

Office software: word, excel, PPT and other software.

1, certain technical skills or knowledge:

Although in Zhihu, everyone has been discussing whether product managers need technical skills, learning certain programming knowledge can not only improve their logical thinking ability, but also reduce many communication problems with programmers, so even if they can't program, it is recommended to master certain technical knowledge.

2. Some operational knowledge:

No matter how good the product is, it also needs to be operated. Operational knowledge is essential for both products and better communication with operational departments.

3. Some communication skills:

Although the product manager is called mini CEO, he is a CEO without power. If you use the company's various resources to serve yourself and complete products, then communication skills are essential;

4. Some design skills:

In many companies without interactive design positions, the product manager and UI are responsible for the design of the whole product, so the product manager must master certain design knowledge;

If you meet the above criteria, it is not difficult to get the position of product manager;

In my opinion, the three most important abilities of a product manager are: learning ability, logical thinking and communication ability;

The learning ability ranks first; There are many questions and answers about products in Zhihu, and there are also many books about product managers in bookstores. As long as you study hard, you will be able to master relevant knowledge and skills.

I hope my answer can help you and let you embark on the road of product manager.
