Nixon Menezes - EMBA Class of 2017-C

Product Manager - MindSphere | Siemens PLM Software

Background

“I have been working in Siemens for the last 13 years, being a part of their Product Lifecycle Software. I was always looking for a breakthrough to explore my other qualities. I did a PMP Certification, but that didn’t help me. I tried for the position of a Product Manager in Mindsphere, but they said I was more suited for my current role."

Why IPL

"I came across IPL’s EMBA Course. After speaking with Prof. Pinkesh and the alumni, I was convinced that I should go ahead with this Course. Their focus on Experiential Learning made sure that I could start applying concepts immediately at my workplace. Product Labs was an intense experience, where I learnt a lot about the market and the customer apart from Innovation. Their connections in the industry are great for building your network and finding out exactly what potential Hiring Managers are looking for."

The IPL Advantage

“When I was offered the position of Product Manager at Mindsphere, my stance was different. Within 2 months of learning at IPL I had an overall picture of what Product Management is, and I was able to successfully give the interview and talk about Product Management. Though I didn’t have any prior experience in it, I was confident of getting an opportunity sooner than later. I landed the job and I am happy with my new role. I thank IPL and the faculty for giving me the power and confidence to think like a Product Manager. ”
