for W3c validation
Note: as I’m currently evaluating and interviewing for product manager opportunities, I’m publishing many answers to the product, behavioral, business, and life questions I’m researching/practicing publicly rather than keep them private in a Google doc.
What feedback have you received from past managers?
Great question.
My extreme self awareness has to top the list of managers’ feedback. I’ve always been able to attract talent to collaborate or work with; others (almost) always enjoy working in teams with me. Both a plus and a negative (at time): I’m honest — perhaps even too honest. Empathy is my super power (now even more so than earlier in my career), and managers know it. Managers would also say I’m responsible, collaborative, cooperative, intelligent, innovative, consistently thinking outside the box, and creative. Lastly, I make decisions with a very strategic lens to favor long term outcomes over short term solutions.
