Episode Synopsis

Continuing the conversation from the last episode with Tobi Otokiti, my favorite thing about her is how she has made a sweet cocktail out of her several skills and diverse experience.Tobi shares her journey as a woman who wanted to work in tech, but didn’t know where exactly she’d fit. This is not a regular career conversation though. This episode gives you permission to test the waters, invest in yourself, and shine in your space.Here’s a snapshot of what you'll learn:Advice regarding the future of workWhy volunteering is  a great opportunity to discover yourselfHow to prepare yourself for careers that don’t exist yet.What to do before you make the transition into product managementHow to become a product managerHow to break into Product management without a tech backgroundWhy your weird background is an advantageWhat to remember: You don't need to figure everything out at the beginning. Clarity comes and opportunities open up as you move.Links and tools related to this episodeEpisode 8 with Tobi OtokitiProduct Dive CommunityTobi Otokiti on InstagramTobi Otokiti on LinkedInTobi Otokiti on TwitterFREE Tutorials, Private Q&As, and Insider Emails: Sign up to get our free lessons and insider inspiration on personal branding and online business.Keep up with us on social media by following @showuphq on Instagram.We've also got plenty of Q&A episodes on the way.
