Successful product managers typically excel at defining a long-term vision and aligning stakeholders around that vision. They think strategically about market opportunities, customer needs, and business goals. Product owners, while involved in strategy, often focus more on the tactical execution, prioritizing the backlog and ensuring development teams deliver incremental value. This distinction means effective PMs are visionary leaders, whereas POs are skilled facilitators of day-to-day product development.
