Building a Product Plan requires two competences. The first is about toolkits and their application. The second is a high degree of self awareness and eagerness to understand better our own strenghts and weaknesses. Certain product management tasks will force you to to cultivate new skills. Usually this type of learning is faster through a coach/coachee relationship instead that of a business consultant. If a personality characteristic is an obstacle and stop you from achieving your business targets we will highlight it and decide together how to address it.
