Retrospect
The PMs taught me a lot about writing effective PRDs. I wrote a few PRDs myself because the bulk of the work was front-end reskin. I also learned a lot from our lead designer and Product VP. When writing PRDs, one can get caught up in the nitty gritty details…but they helped zoom out and reiterate our high-level goals. I intend to practice both these skills more!
