Hi Lis,

I work for a small software company where we all seem to wear several hats
at times. I'm helping now to create the software requirements documents for
the next version of our software. The work is collaborative, involving our
product manager and software architect. I did not create the initial feature
list, so I'm mainly acting as a facilitator and writer at the moment. I'll
transition into design mode once our requirements are finished,
level-of-effort estimates are assigned, and the remaining requirements are
validated (after we weed out the implausible wishes). It sounds like you
have a more strategic role than I do, pushed further to the product
management side of the business. IMHO someone with a design background and
solid business skills/education would be a real asset as a product manager.
The whole "know your user/customer" thing we all go on about will continue
to serve you. Good luck with your new role,

Michael Micheletti
