Mastering Any Product Management Domain 🧑🏻🏫
Software products exist in virtually every sector, from healthcare and fitness to food and finance. As such, the demand for product managers is broad, and the average product manager’s career path may span several industries. Traversing domains means serving diverse sets of users, each with specific needs and behaviors, and navigating discrete regulations, competitors, best practices, and technologies.
Switching industries is beneficial to individuals seeking to broaden their experience. It’s equally beneficial to clients and companies—a product manager who has worked in more than one domain can offer innovative perspectives and drive real improvements. Wide-ranging business domain knowledge is especially useful to organizations or technologies that serve multiple sectors.

Google announced it’s going to start rolling out end-to-end encrypted group RCS chats to the Google Messages beta over the next few weeks. Google’s messaging app has supported encryption for one-on-one conversations for a while now, but this is a big step for feeling confident that most of your conversations can’t be read by carriers or Google.
In an announcement post on Friday, Google said the feature will be “available to some users in the open beta program over the coming weeks,” so it may be a moment before it’s generally available. Google also officially announced that it’s working on a feature that’ll let you use any emoji when reacting to an RCS message; the company was spotted testing this last month.
While Google’s announcement post is styled as a farewell to SMS messaging, most of us won’t be able to ditch it that easily, as Apple has so far refused to bring the tech to iOS. (Tim Cook even told one person that a better solution is just buying their mom an iPhone.) Google acknowledges this and takes a few shots at its competitor, ending its post by saying, “all of the major mobile carriers and manufacturers have adopted RCS as the standard – except for Apple,” and that Apple’s use of SMS “means their texting is stuck in the 1990s.”
