If you’ve been trying to figured out how to keep the security and structure of a well-established, large company while pursuing a life in tech, you’ll definitely want to listen to today’s episode with Alaric Eby (probably multiple times)!

Alaric’s journey starts right at the beginning of the most recent economic depression in the United States working at a Citigroup, a large financial institution in New York City.

He’ll share his struggles in making his transition into Product Management at a smaller hospitality-focused tech company and how he’s currently solving problems through digital solutions at American Express.

Alaric has found his Empjoyment by asking himself “how and why” to build Jenga towers out of Legos (you’ll get it when you listen), which he applies in tech through product management.

We dive into Alaric’s view on what a product manager is and what skills, approaches, and mindsets can lead you to success as well.

Listen now to learn how to:
  • Gain experience in tech while working in large companies and industries not known for their tech approaches
  • Leverage the words “Why” and “How” in your current role to build work examples that can translate to product management positions
  • Embrace a mindset that will help you be successful in tech regardless of your previous background

From Insight to Action
