Frequently asked questions

A Product Owner has the ultimate responsibility for managing the product to ensure that it delivers benefits to the end-user and meets the needs of key stakeholders. They are responsible for representing the business in defining and prioritising work, managing change, making trade-offs between competing priorities, and ensuring that all features have a clear purpose.

Product managers, on the other hand, are more focused on managing teams of engineers to ensure they have all the resources they need to produce new features. Product managers also manage external relationships with customers and stakeholders.

There are a number of ways to become a Product Owner, and everyone's experience is different. Some people move into the role from other product roles, some companies grow their own talent from within, and others hire freelancers to fill the position. Regardless of how you get there, what matters most is your ability to deliver results as a Product Owner.
