Why This Matters Now

High-Impact PMs Don’t Leave Recognition To Chance

Promotion packets rarely tell the full story. This assessment gives you a cleaner read on your perceived impact so you can align it with the actual work you’re doing.

  • See if your leadership actually connects you to shipped outcomes
  • Spot where you’re doing “invisible work” that quietly props up the roadmap
  • Understand how cross-functional partners talk about you when you’re not in the room
  • Identify concrete opportunities to make your wins easier to sponsor and promote

“When I walked into perf conversations this cycle, I was no longer guessing how my org saw me as a PM. The recognition map from this quiz gave me language—and proof—for the work I’d already done.”

Note: This is not a generic personality quiz. It’s a focused recognition lens designed specifically for modern product organizations.

About The PM Recognition Quiz

A Lightweight Diagnostic For How Your Execs Actually Sees You

The PM Recognition Quiz is built for IC, senior, and staff-level PMs who are already doing meaningful work—but aren’t sure how much of it is clearly recognized by decision-makers.

  • Maps your recognition across leadership, peers, and cross-functional partners
  • Scores visibility of both “hero” projects and quiet, sustaining work
  • Surfaces where your narrative doesn’t match the story others tell about you
  • Outputs a clear recognition tier with recommended next moves

Who This Is Designed For

You’ll Get The Most From This If…

IC & Senior PMs

You’re driving real outcomes, but it’s not obvious how much leadership connects those outcomes back to you.

Staff & Group PMs

You’re accountable for portfolios and org design—and you want to know if your strategic work is being recognized, not just shipped tickets.

Aspiring Leads

You’re tracking toward your next level and want to avoid the trap of being the reliable PM who quietly carries teams without formal recognition.

Questions, Answered

FAQ About The PM Recognition Assessment

How long does the assessment take?

The initial recognition assessment takes about 3–5 minutes. The full PM Recognition Quiz (which you’ll unlock after opting in or DM’ing “Vested”) can take 10–15 minutes if you choose to go deeper on each dimension.

Is this just for big tech / FAANG PMs?

No. The questions are written for modern product orgs—startups, scale-ups, and larger companies. What matters more than company size is that you work with cross-functional partners and ship outcomes with measurable impact.

Will you share my responses with my company?

No. Your answers are private. The goal is to give you a clearer, more honest view of your recognition landscape so you can make better decisions about how you show your work and ask for support.

What do I actually get after I complete it?

You’ll receive a recognition tier summary (e.g., under-recognized, recognized but under-leveraged, clearly vested) plus 2–3 concrete moves you can make in the next 30 days—ranging from low-friction visibility plays to promotion-supporting artifacts.

Why do I need to DM the keyword “Vested”?

The DM keyword does two things: it tells me you came from this assessment page, and it opens a direct thread where I can share your private quiz link, follow-up notes, and future recognition resources without spamming your inbox.
