#AGlimpseIntoCarousell Product Manager Julia likens her role as being a spider in a web. She shares: “While you don’t catch flies, you catch ideas and insights. Your job is basically to connect the dots between various user needs, stakeholder needs, the market environment, tech trends and many more. From there, you need to crystallise features out of the insights you gain. As a PM spider, you need quite a bit of creativity, strategic thinking and empathy to create the perfect net."
