"I believe that one of the most important skills a Product Manager could possess is the ability to define a product vision and design a roadmap around that vision. For that reason, I decided two months ago to enroll in eCornell's Product Roadmapping course. The course focused on creating compelling roadmaps that articulate the plan clearly. Other focus areas included how to source ideas and present product roadmaps to stakeholders and other team members. The course was two weeks long, and I invested 20 hours of study into the program overall. Next, I plan to take eCornell's Product Management 360 Certificate Program. The initial Roadmapping course, along with this new PM certificate program that begins in June, will allow me to provide master-level skills to Amazon with even stronger expertise in product strategy, analytics, and innovation."
