What’s your AI-PM Competency Shape ?
Why the AI Product Management Competency Chart Matters
The role of a Product Manager (PM) is incredibly diverse, requiring a unique blend of skills to navigate strategic decisions, stakeholder management, and customer-focused development. For AI Product Managers, the challenge becomes even greater. Not only do they need to excel in traditional product management skills like prioritization, roadmap planning, and customer insights, but they must also master technical competencies in machine learning, data science, and AI ethics.
This competency chart provides a structured way to evaluate and develop the essential skills for success in AI product management. Drawing inspiration from Ravi Mehta’s framework on PM archetypes—builders, tuners, innovators, and strategists—the chart helps AI Product Managers identify where they excel and where they can grow. It bridges the gap between technical expertise and customer-centric thinking, ensuring PMs can:
- Align AI Capabilities with Business Goals: By balancing AI/ML skills with product management expertise, this chart ensures the right focus on building AI products that solve real customer problems.
- Develop Cross-Functional Leadership: Successful AI Product Managers must work closely with engineering, design, and business teams. The chart helps foster the blend of technical fluency and stakeholder engagement required for seamless collaboration.
- Adapt to an Evolving Role: The role of an AI Product Manager is rapidly evolving, much like the technology itself. The competency chart acts as a guide for PMs to stay relevant by continuously improving their skill set.
This tool is not just a self-assessment—it’s a roadmap for aspiring and experienced AI Product Managers to grow, lead, and deliver impactful AI-driven solutions. It’s designed to help individuals and organizations alike ensure their teams are equipped to navigate the unique challenges of AI product management.
