We were in class, learning the tenets of product management. Our tutor was the dashing, articulate, German-engineered Professor Guha.
I loved his lessons. There was a lot to take in.
But something was perturbing me.
In our college, job offers were made principally for marketing and finance domains, with a few openings for human resources and operations management.
Premier jobs relating to strategy and product management were secured by other institutes.
Perceiving this deterrent, I asked the Professor what the point was in taking and imparting this course.
He mused over the question and remarked-- the insights and aptitude development in the said subject was not for the near future for most of us.
But in the long road, if/when we got a chance to oversee the development and fabrication of merchandise/service;
we should be ready for it.
Are we ready for the wonderful things that we dearly want; which are niftily eluding us? Are we looking for them? Are we looking hard?
