Etsy Senior Director, Product Marketing • January 22
A head of PMM needs to have a birds eye view of the overall customer experience and the road map for improvements and be able to translate that into a strong narrative. A head of PMM also needs to be a great leader focused on developing excellent talent. To hone both while being a senior PMM, you can:
Take on a step-up project to help your team develop an overall narrative for how the product experience is changing and improving your product for customers.
Offer to mentor a more junior member of the team to build leadership skills
Build strong relationships with senior level partners and help your team strengthen collaboration with those partners
