In our third episode of Season 2, we sit down with Malwina Fojcik, Senior Product Design Manager at Productboard, to discuss why seamless cross-functional collaboration, now more than ever before, is essential to modern work environments. Team members – regardless if they are designers, engineers, or product managers – need to be encouraged to take full responsibility of every aspect of a project in order to guarantee its success. Trust is so important when building these lasting and meaningful professional relationships, which is why, Malwina explains, giving and receiving feedback as well as gratitude should be a big part of your company’s daily mantra.
Malwina also addresses effective management styles, sharing why it’s more advantageous to be a “partner” than a “boss,” and how leveraging personal strengths is what ultimately helps to craft good leaders. On a final note, Malwina turns to health tech, offering some unsettling news for all those IT people who aren’t getting their full eight hours of sleep each night.
