Cody Rice is the human equivalent of a compressed code base. A tremendous pageant of practical knowledge and wisdom compacted into a very small number of years spent on the planet. Or else a very, very old soul.
I had the good fortune to be introduced to Cody by another celestial being - our good friend and past guest Jacobo Plu from Yoi Corp.
Today Cody holds one of two of Product Manager seats at GoGuardian - but nowhere else on his resume has he served as "product manager."
Aerospace Engineer? Check.
Competitive CrossFit Athlete? Naturally.
Data Scientist? That too.
But it's precisely this strange mix of exploits that helps Cody succeed every day in empathizing with his market and his colleagues - two of the most essential PM skills as we will discuss.
