Interface Design
John was very thorough with his advice. He took the time to listen to my experience, interest, and goals, and used that info to craft some very insightful suggestions. I could tell within the first half of our session that he was very knowledgable about the PM space. He even suggested content and certifications to look into as a next step. I'd highly recommend John to anyone looking to learn more about Product.
John had great probing questions and his expertise offered so much insight. I appreciated the opportunity to speak with him and look forward to future conversations! He's given me a lot to think about!
