In the world of high-growth technology startups, many people have weighed in on the ideal functional backgrounds for founders. Common models are:

• Hipster, Hacker, Hustler - The trio of designer, developer, and sales person.
• Technical Founders - Think Mark Zuckerberg or Bill Gates. Founders get extra credibility for dropping out of college.
• Design Founders - The success of Apple and Airbnb show the potential world-changing impact of design thinking.

Strangely, product managers (PMs) almost never show up on this list. In my view, PMs are severely underrated in early stage startups - as Skilljar grows, I'm increasingly finding my personal background in product management to be a critical foundation for success. Read on for the 3 reasons why product managers make the ideal founders.
