“Daddy, what do you do at work?” can finally be an easy question to answer: “I’m Pinky Pig!” If you have little ones, and want to help them know what a Product Manager does, my family has been having a lot of fun with Hamburger Heaven by Wong Herbert Yee. I got it on a fluke at the library, and was surprised to read about the hero, Pinky Pig, saving the restaurant she works at by doing market research, creating a communications plan, and ultimately helping to deliver winning products. The book is also very cute and rhymes, making it great for read-aloud time. So, if you’re looking for ways to help start training the next generation of Product Managers, give it a go the next time you’re looking for a read. You may even get inspired to do even more market research yourself.
