We started off the interview with a simple question: What’s exciting about product management? And David’s response was perfect - the legacy that your work leaves behind. There are many professions in the world where many of us don’t get to see the real impact that it makes, all we have are stats to look for but with product management, David sees a real change happening in the world with the choices he makes.  "If there's one job that can really leave a legacy, it's through the work that you do as a product manager" Product Academy [https://www.productacademy.io/] Connect with David on Linkedin [https://www.linkedin.com/in/productdave/]
