<p>Very often we talk about what a product manager should do, what they need to learn, and how they fit into their organisation, but we like this 2015 post from Simba Sagwete detailing six key things a product manager should NOT do.</p>
<p><a href="//wp-content/uploads/2015/11/six-things.jpg"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter wp-image-7523 " src="//wp-content/uploads/2015/11/six-things.jpg" alt="a number six against a red background" width="927" height="567" /></a></p>
<p>From being too technical or too involved in marketing to being a data analyst or even a &#8216;boss&#8217;, this post suggests that while skills are really important for product managers, there are others we can afford to leave to other people.</p>
