The Product Manager

Internal customers. Real roadmaps.

The survey's quiet scandal: 62.3% of mid-skill practitioners already own a commercial tool and cannot unlock it. Bought, not adopted. You run GRC as a product because of exactly this. Engineers, auditors, and execs are your customers, adoption is your metric, and you kill features nobody uses. Vendor onboarding solves week one. You own months two through twelve.
