AA232 - Product Sense: Innate or Learnable? The Million Dollar Question
Description
Is product sense innate or learnable? We debate the million dollar question in product management.
Brian and Om explore whether great product leaders are born or made, why organizations promote people with weak product intuition, and how to actually develop genuine product sense. We cover the promotion problem, delayed feedback loops, the role of mentorship, balancing data with intuition, and scaling product thinking across contexts.
Key topics: nature vs. nurture in product thinking, why bad product leaders rise, learning challenges, mentorship environments, data vs. intuition, and transferring skills across domains.
Whether you're developing your product intuition or building a product culture, this episode offers practical frameworks for intentional learning.
