The Product Manager’s Mission Statement
The Product Manager’s mission in Taboola is to deliver successful products at scale that provide business impact in alignment with the company’s strategy.
Taboola Product Managers have full autonomy and Independence to pioneer their own product, exploring uncharted product territory, paving the way for new product innovation and scaling their product and features alongside a team of talented and motivated product professionals.
Delivery
without delivering products nothing else will materialize. Market research, building roadmaps, designing, running betas - are all means to an end. The PM’s role is to deliver features and products to the field.
Successful Products
Just delivering products is not enough - we want them to create tangible (and preferably measurable) value to customers as well as relevant stakeholders
At Scale
Once the product creates value, we want that value to impact as many customers as possible. The PM should focus on products that move the needle and provide the tools so that they are sold and implemented at scale.
Business Impact
Value in itself is also not enough. Taboola is a ‘for-profit’ organization and our products and features should be aligned to our strategy for growth.
