    #32 - Season 2 Begins: Why I Took a New Job

    I took a new job, so I'm starting a new season of this podcast. In this first episode I share some of the things that went into making the decision to take a new job. The rest of the season will document my journey as the only product manager at my company, taking a new product from launch into the growth stage, and then further into establishing a product culture and growing a product organization. I'll still definitely interview other product managers as I shift into this new focus as my career shifts.
