About

I am Wayne Chen, a Principal Product Manager at Instacart with ten years of experience in enterprise and consumer products. My journey into product management has been anything but straightforward, and that has shaped my passion for helping others with their career growth. Here’s what you can expect from me:

• Candid, No BS Advice: I believe in keeping it real—no fluff, just straightforward, transparent advice to help you succeed in your career.
• Learn from My Experience: Breaking into product management from a non-traditional background wasn’t easy, and I’ve learned a lot the hard way. I’m here to share those lessons to help you avoid the same pitfalls.
• Mentorship I Didn’t Have: Early on in my career, I struggled to find the mentorship I needed. Most of the challenges I faced weren’t covered in books or online articles—they were the kinds of real-world issues you learn through experience. My goal is to offer the mentorship I missed so you have the guidance to find the right answers more easily.
• Supporting Your Growth: Whether you’re aiming to break into product management or looking to level up in your current role, I’m here to provide practical insights and support your journey to the next level.

Let’s chat and grow together—and grow your career together.

Wayne is an amazing mentor. His approach to the session is much more evolved. He did really follow the "No BS, let's get you some clarity" approach. If you are feeling unsure of next steps, or feeling stuck, I would highly recommend doing a session with Wayne. I feel I can move towards my goals with a lot more surety now. The session gave me so much confidence, and clarity, and some thinking tools to navigate the chaos of managing one's career.
