The role models

Just a quick rendering from the invaluable Open Peeps Sketch (and other tools) library.

The first idea about naming this category was: the great ones. But that was very much a fixed mindset idea about these people I want to highlight.

So, what are they really? Why do they need an overview like this? Well, they don’t need it, really. Product management Twitter is already all over them.

But at some point back in time, I found their advice helpful. Be it on Twitter, in a book or somewhere else.

So these are my criteria all future members of this elusive club “the role models” must fulfull:

  • has written a book
  • has appeared on stage at a relevant event/conference
  • has indirectly helped me with a topic I was struggling with
  • is active on social media, like Twitter or LinkedIn

I’ll also try to excerpt some of their thinking, if copyright allows.
