I really enjoyed reading the book "Hooked" By Nir Eyal! It is written in a light but very professional language. The author gives real life examples of various product decisions which succeeded or failed, and explains why that happened. He also emphasizes the importance of "hooking" the users and showing them the value of your product right away.

I recently read this article about key trends in Product management in 2022. I think the trend of flexible processes will be standing out among all others.

2020 and 2021 were tricky to navigate in professional and personal sense. However, I'm still grateful for this experience. One thing I'm proud of is stepping into Healthcare industry and becoming Product Lead at Banty Inc. 

What are you proud of now? Any exciting career plans for 2022?

I keep hearing that more and more people prefer to find another role, rather than return to the offices. Remote work is taking over! What do you think about this trend?

Hi, Polywork!
I'm Mariya - product manager with a Ph.D. in math education. I'm currently working in virtual healthcare startup Banty. I'm excited to join Polywork at the early stages of development! So far Polywork looks like a friendly, professional, yet non-boring place. I'm hoping to meet other like-minded professionals, and find opportunities for productive collaborations!
