Career Advice About Panasonic

A coworker of mine is transitioning to a TPM role at my company. This is a new role at my org, and my coworker has never worked as a TPM before and the manager who suggested that he transition to the TPM role has left the company.

I have worked with TPMs in the past so I'm a little familiar with the TPM role at big tech, and so I volunteered to work with him on transitioning to the role. I figured this would be a good way to improve collaboration with my coworkers and improve cross team collaboration.

Are there any resources or deep dives into the TPM role, how to effectively work as a TPM, and how to onboard a TPM?

My manager gave his 2 week notice today for personal reasons. The company is working on backfilling his role which in the meantime will be handled by his manager. I recently started this job a few months ago, so while I have worked closely with my manager, I haven't yet worked with his manager or other managers in the org yet.

Here are my questions around making this transition smooth:

• What can I do in the next 2 weeks to ensure that the work I've done with my manager is captured well for other people in the org to notice?
• How do I best approach the last one-on-one with my manager?
• And how can I make a good impression with my new interim manager?
