Technical awareness of market consciousness and market staff
The former day, the project manager, the project manager first spent more than 1 hour, from the technical background, system architecture, to each API's implementation, current problems, every member of the work, etc., from my angle Look, whether from the technical perspective or the management point of the project itself, it is very comprehensive, and the data is rich, concise and easy to understand, I feel perfect as a member of the project group.
At the question phase, first, ask questions, responsible for the supervisor of this project research and development, and he proposes the possible problems that the project may exist: how much API is implemented, the agreement may compatibility, and the memory of the code. The second question of the boss, he pointed out that the project summarizes why only the market factors do not mention the items, no research of NGN business prospects, does not collect other manufacturers' research and development status and commercial and trial commercial cases around the world.
This question is made, let me fall from a good self-feeling. Yes, in the process of participating in the project for more than a year, I have never considered this problem. As long as we complete the functionality specified in the agreement as soon as possible, we will improve the performance of the system as soon as possible, which is all our duties and concerns. As for the market and business prospects, it should be a market department.
Suddenly remembered the "10 characteristics of excellent employees" in the previous day, the following are related to the market or business factors of the project.
1. There is enough curiosity for the products you develop;
2. Pay attention to communicate with customers;
3. To actively think how to help people solve practical problems;
7. To learn business knowledge and economics, such as the company's operations and business models, industry rules
8. Pay attention to your opponent;
Although I am still a student, it is not a formal employee, but I still feel embarrassed with this contrast. We have worked for more than a year, and a system we think is a relatively perfect, but there is no business prospect. This project is ultimately likely to be bundled.
I also remembered that I heard and later saw Microsoft project model, and a team of Program Manager, responsible for project technology development, resource allocation, progress control, etc., as well as product manager (Product) Manager, responsible for communicating with customers, understanding customer and market demand, determining product characteristics. It turned out that the product manager did not have a lot, and now they know how important he is. Without them, the project is likely to fall into the misunderstanding of the technology, and finally make a well-known product without a market.
The market awareness of technicians seems to be necessary, and the technical skills of market staff are indispensable. Only a certain technical foundation, where can you describe the real advantage of the product to solve the customer's specific problem, how to compatibility with existing systems and smooth transitions. It seems that this is why the company sent several market staff to participate in our topic.
It turned out to talk to many people's career planning issues, everyone decided that technology could not make a lifetime, and the transformation is a morning and evening. If the transformation is not a job in a certain day, it needs a process. It needs to constantly cultivate his market awareness and management, etc., etc., the accumulation is almost, the opportunity is coming, and the water to the stream.
