This note covers the study Generative AI Readiness Among Product Managers, run by Akanksha Pandey, Executive MBA, Indian Institute of Technology Roorkee. Findings are intended for the SPM Summit India 2027 Research Track.
Taking part is voluntary
The first question asks whether you agree to take part. You can stop at any time by closing the page, and optional questions can be skipped. If you choose not to take part, only that choice is recorded, with nothing else.
What is collected
- Your answers to the survey questions.
- A random identifier created in your browser, used only to save your progress as you go.
- The time you spent on each section, and whether you were on a phone, tablet or computer (worked out from the width of your screen).
- The recruitment channel, if the link you followed carried one (for example
?src=linkedin).
What is not collected
- No name, email address or employer is asked for in the survey.
- We do not store your IP address with your answers. Your answers are also stored without your browser details (user agent), cookies or any device fingerprint.
- The survey sets no cookies and uses no analytics or advertising trackers. Your progress is kept in your own browser's storage so you can pick up where you left off.
Like almost every website, the server that hosts this site keeps standard access logs for security and troubleshooting. Those logs include the IP address of each request. They are kept separately from the survey data, are not joined to it, and are not used in the research.
Open-text answers
Two questions invite a written answer. Please leave out your name, your employer's name and any confidential company information.
The follow-up interview
If you say yes to a follow-up interview, you are asked for an email address after you submit. That contact is stored in a separate table with no link to your answers: it carries no shared identifier, and only the date is recorded, not the time. It is used only to arrange the interview.
How the answers are used
Results are reported only in aggregate. The readiness snapshot you see at the end is calculated from your own answers and shown only to you; it is an indicative snapshot from your own answers, not an assessment. The data is used for this academic study and the publications that come from it.
Withdrawing
Because answers are stored without anything that identifies you, a single response cannot be found and removed after it is submitted. If you change your mind part-way, close the page: unfinished responses are not included in the analysis.
Questions
Contact details for the researcher will be added here before the study opens.
