Who is Jason Abdo?

I know what it’s like to wonder where you stand as a product manager—questioning if you’re ready for the next level, balancing competing priorities, and striving to make a real impact. Over the past decade, I’ve worked across Fortune 50 companies, startups, B2C, B2B, SaaS, and retail, developing a deep understanding of what separates an Analyst from a Senior Product Manager.

That’s why I created this assessment—to give Product Managers a clear, data-driven way to evaluate skills, identify growth areas, and confidently determine where they stand on the product management spectrum. Whether you’re looking to advance your career or hone your craft, this proven framework provides the clarity you need to make informed decisions and take action.
