How to get into Product Management

Whether they’re students in college or seasoned colleagues in other fields, I get asked this question all the time: “How do I become a Product Manager?”. I’m not sure there’s one clear path, so I decided it might be useful to ask a bunch of product managers how THEY got into it. What are the qualities you need to be a good PM? What are the perceptions vs. the reality of working in product? Stories and advice from real product managers.
