However, if we do find ourselves there, we would like to think that the doctors know exactly what is wrong with us and that they have a way to fix us. However, let’s face it – the human body is really, really complex and often doctors are just guessing at what ails us.

He later clarified and said it was not going away, but morphing this into a more business related role, rather than purely tech. I don't think this is a bad thing. Product Management has always firmly sat between business, tech, and the user/customer.

Does your product positioning need to be different than your sales narratives? The short and simple answer is no, but it’s highly dependent on how your product positioning is constructed. As a former product marketing manager, I know this all too well and was guilty in the first degree!
