One of our learners who opted for this course to become a Product Manager with no prior experience is Phalguni Telidevara. Let us read more about the journey of how this Specialist Developer went on to become a certified Product Manager.

What made you choose the Product Management domain for upskilling?

I am a developer and I love the technical challenges of engineering but despite coding, I like to solve problems and I love to be part of strategic decisions in my teams. I wanted to learn and own the product at times(which is otherwise for a developer). I love to jump in where the problem is to leverage the in-depth knowledge of the product, the market, and the customer, and understand all the boats in which our company is sailing. To add, technology is always my passion and I would love to continue in this domain.

Please share the highlights of your upskilling experience.

My passion was to be a Product Manager and Product Specialist from a developer. After I landed this Postgraduate Certificate Program in Product Management, the last four months were a very joyful learning experience.

BYOP helped me become a product manager, take accountability, and gave me confidence all while I got to experience the ultimate Product Management journey.

How relevant is our Postgraduate Certificate Program In Product Management, keeping in mind the current trends in the industry?

“The content (recording classes)helped me to go through the classes when I was sick with Covid. The interaction we got to have in class, the peers, and with the faculty resulted in a very joyful journey. Nowadays, I await weekends not to go out but to attend my classes.”

I have learned about user research, product design, market trends, and everything that is needed to become a certified Product Manager. I would say they sculpted us into “real-world Product Managers”. Faculty teaching is on a real example basis, the case studies they provide us are very helpful and the transition into a product manager mindset under the guidance of our mentors is magic. All in all, the mentorship takes my thought process to the next level.

I would say that the soul of the whole Product Management course is BYOP. I have learned everything practical while working on my BYOP. The level of detail, and the knowledge we gain as we do it is incredible.

WHAT MADE YOU CHOOSE THE PRODUCT MANAGEMENT DOMAIN FOR UPSKILLING?

For the last 8+ years, I have been working as a Data analyst, 6.5 years of which have been at my current organization. Here, I have worked very closely with the Business/Product owners to identify, define & measure business opportunities using data. I felt I was at that place in my career where I needed to expand my skill set and learn about Product development. I wanted to be able to have intelligent conversations & provide inputs into Product development strategy for my organization

WHAT WAS YOUR UPSKILLING EXPERIENCE LIKE?

“The BYOP project is the keystone in this course for me, the deciding factor. Everyone teaches concepts & asks graded questions. BYOP sets this course apart from the crowd.”

Malvika Sahu, Senior Lead for Analytics and Research at Fidelity Investments

My experience so far has been good. Of course, not every topic is entirely relevant for me, and then there are some topics that I am already familiar with in practice and not just in theory. Having said that, the way this course is structured is set to ingrain in us all key concepts.

HOW WOULD YOU DESCRIBE YOUR EXPERIENCE WITH THE ONLINE LIVE CLASSES BY IIM-I FACULTY AND INDUSTRY EXPERTS?

In all honesty, it has been a good learning experience. Classes that encourage participation by design are generally more engaging, and classes with a tonne of theory do tend to get a bit mundane. The fact that we have folks with industry experience teaching us concepts goes a long way in developing faith in the concepts.

“To all those who are serious about building a new product, be it as a part of their current work role, or something of their own. Applying concepts to your own idea will be an excellent learning experience.”

There is no denying the fact that this is a chance for professionals to revamp their corporate journey. Product Management is seen as a strong suit for individuals to soar to greater heights.

The high demand for Product Management professionals in all sectors of industries combined, with a handsome pay scale, are the primary reasons behind many professionals opting to upskilling in this capital-intensive field.

Here is what one of our proficient alumni, Deepak Saroj Kumar, a Resident Doctor at Fortis Malar Hospital had to say about IIM Indore and Jigsaw Academy’s Postgraduate program in Product Management.

What made you choose the Product Management domain for upskilling?

If the cell and its components are the smallest units of life, I think Product Management and its components are the smallest units of institutional change and new-age entrepreneurship. Over the years, my varied experiences, largely as a strategist, across various domains, sparked an interest to learn the language and sharpen the skills related to Product Management through an academic exercise.

What was your experience like with IIM-I and Jigsaw’s Product Management course?

The beauty of this course lies in its open-mindedness and its collective open-ended design. This course engages the educational philosophy that drives blended learning to such an extent that, with its intensity and content, it’s arguably difficult not to develop a problem-focussed, customer-centric attitude to creating new solutions or improving on products. It’s been said, to effectively learn and apply, you need to have an open and inquisitive mind. The single main highlight of my experience thus far has been that this course has freshened up my perspectives and incited my curiosity.

How relevant is our Postgraduate Certificate Program In Product Management, keeping in mind the current trends in the industry?

Of course, this course itself is made relevant by the rapid growth of the domain of Product Management over the past few years. Given that it is largely difficult to stitch relevance to current changing trends in academic designs of any course, this specific program manages to do it through a few of its core strengths – the faculty and their up-to-date knowledge about market trends. The opportunity to share knowledge, interact, and continuously learn are plenty throughout this program and makes it easy to apply the skills gained.

“The 5i Framework aligns so beautifully with many of the other concepts involved in Product Management. And because this course positions itself to be based exclusively on this framework, the understanding and applications of all its components ought to be seamless, even if your experience with Product Management is different. The content, learning material, and LMS are quite good and add a lot of value, especially the pre-read material.”

Deepak Saroj Kumar (Resident Doctor – Department of Nephrology and Renal Transplantation at Fortis Malar Hospital)

How would you describe your experience with the online live classes by IIM-I faculty and Industry Experts?

Although the live classes have been difficult for me to manage because of my profession as a doctor in this ongoing pandemic, the recorded format of the classes has been suiting me well. But nevertheless, all of the classes I have attended are interactive and no single class has been a didactic exercise, making sure that all parts of the topic are understood by everyone. I have not seen a single question that has been asked go unanswered during the live classes. Even if time doesn’t allow for all the questions to be asked, they are answered offline by the respective faculty. What more does a student need?

Another such learner who chose to upskill with Jigsaw Academy is Vedanshi S, the Chief Consultant at Pelvicure. Here is what she had to say about our course in a heartfelt conversation with us.

What made you opt for Product Management and how was your upskilling experience?

I am from a clinical background with no formal specialization in management. I have serious thoughts over starting my own venture hence I believe some management knowledge would always be more productive. My experience so far with the course is pretty good. The 5i framework is very effective in learning the objectives of the program. Right from the beginning, you get an idea of how your product/venture is going to shape up and make you adept at making the right choices.

Did you find the curriculum and faculty of the Postgraduate Certificate Program In Product Management helpful? And how was your experience with Bring Your Own Product (BYOP)?

“The faculty is amazing. Both IIM-I faculty and the Industry Experts. Theoretical, as well as practical expertise shared by each faculty, is something that we feel fairly privileged for.”

Vedanshi S (Chief consultant at DevinaPelvicure)

Formal guidance of management is what I feel I lacked in my experience, and I strongly feel that I’ve made the right choice. It’s like doing a mini MBA. It is excellent. I’ve gotten so many valuable inputs on my product idea through BYOP which would definitely be a plus once I plan to launch it in the market as an independent venture.

How relevant is our Postgraduate Certificate Program In Product Management, keeping in mind the current trends in the industry?

It sure is very relevant! The 5i framework is an excellent approach to process your product/project/venture right from ideation to implementing the theory into practice.

Companies have gradually started to acknowledge the importance of Product Management in every field and industry. From product marketing campaigns to achieving customer satisfaction, the Product Manager is responsible for the way a product is perceived in the market.
