What is it like working as a Product Development Manager?
August 2015
Stress level.
Product Development Manager:
The level of stress in this job is very high. It is a newly formed organization under immense pressure to sustain itself and to prove its worth. Networking with industry, training providers and the government are the top requirements of this job. Besides, you also need to be insightful to better coordinate with these stakeholders and to better present the work of the organization. Strong business communication and presentation skills are the bare minimum to perform this job.

Seek Your Passion Not A Job.
Product Development Manager:
A job is just that a job. When your day to day activity involves applying skills and experience in support of your passion then work is not involved. Daily stress and frustration are lost in the bigger picture. In my field, Metallurgical Engineering, I can truly say the daily take-away is that literally everything I do and accomplish with others contributes to improving peoples lives. Knowing that one small fact makes my day, everyday. I have the privilege to make contributions to the fields of medical, aerospace, space exploration, automotive, electronics, micro-electronics, power generation and distribution, hi-rise construction and many other fields of advanced technology. To be an engineer one must be both theoretical and above all practical. It is a field for optimists, dreamers, possessing sufficient confidence and dogged determination to bring new things to our world.
