After reflecting on Andrew Jordan's post, (https://www.projectmanagement.com/articles...-A-Hybrid-Role-) then compare it with the job postings I have reviewed for a PM, almost everyone wants someone experienced both in Waterfall and Agile methodologies. They want someone that can do both, switch back and forth fluidly, and fill in as needed.
I am an infrastructure project manager, and most of my projects are conducted via a Waterfall methodology. But components on some of my projects often involve development, and they work in Agile. I've had Product managers walk me through adding features within a CA Agile application. It felt very foreign to me, but I was glad to get some insight into their process. I've been to formal Agile and Scrum training classes, so am familiar with different processes, but of course, every company has their own twist on how it is used. so that how we do it is just that much different to make it feel foreign.
A lot of companies don't want to hire someone to fill all the roles that are outlined in Agile, so sharing of those responsibilities is going to be forced upon us, just through an economics standpoint.
As my current employer switches to using Agile methodology with all of their development teams, our Agile Coordination Expert has advised us that there are some projects where will will be expected to fill in as Product Managers.
So yes, we will still be project managers, but we will be using Agile methodologies more often than not,, more tools, and how we do our jobs will change.

Cythina, that scenario sounds like a typical transition to Agile so I am sure it will all go well.

Are we using "Product Manager" and "Product Owner" synonymously? I think they are quite different. Maybe a certified Agile Project Manager can clarify? I don't believe Product Manager is necessarily just an Agile role. Saving Changes...
