Being a product manager in an enterprise context is different. Many enterprise PMs complain about being in too many meetings, but the reality is using those meetings as your competitive intelligence network.

Every meeting invitation tells you about organizational priorities. Every agenda reveals what leadership actually cares about this quarter. Every side conversation exposes pain points that no roadmap document will capture.

The best enterprise PMs I know don't just attend meetings - they collect intelligence. They map stakeholder relationships, find ways to drive better outcomes, and spot strategic gaps that only come from being in the room.
