Hannah Olade's Linkedin Analytics

Over my 16-year career as a college counselor, I have never refrained from challenges and creating meaningful experiences for my students. The commitment to craft effective solutions, provide quality, and impactful outcomes were always my primary focus. I am a committed problem-solver who believes in the power of targeted customer-focused solutions. In 2020, during my maternity leave, I decided to pursue a PMP certification. I wanted to challenge myself and enhance my credibility and knowledge in a field that had a far-reaching impact. However, as I progressed, I realized that my true passion lay in a role that offered a unique blend of creativity, innovation, a customer-centric approach, in-depth market research and analysis, strategic decision-making, and opportunities for collaboration. While pursuing certifications like CSM and CSPO, my desire to actively create and launch products became increasingly apparent. It was at this juncture that I discovered the PMDojo | Grow your product mindset program, which not only provided me with valuable hands-on experience but also ignited my journey into the realm of product management. My background underscores my value-driven approach, closely aligning with the core principles of product management. As someone who enjoys problem-solving and embraces challenges as opportunities for growth, it draws me into the dynamic nature of this field. Serving in the college counselor supportive capacity strengthened my communication and empathy, essential skills for effective cross-functional collaboration in product management. I'm eager to transition into product management and connect with professionals who have navigated similar career shifts. Your insights and experiences would be invaluable as I work towards excellence in product management.
