Vikrama Dhiman is presently the Head of Mobility Products at Gojek and has been a builder for more than a decade across firms like Bharti Softbank, WizIQ, and Zeta- a Directi company.
Vikrama says that having such becoming a Product Leader today has come at the expense of making several mistakes. He’s grown from making them, and gained an almost anticipatory sixth sense in prioritizing and responding to challenges - a critical skill for all founders, PMs and builders alike.
Here’s what we talk about on this short yet insightful episode:
* 1:07- Launching Gojek in Singapore, the challenge of localization
* 7:15- Hiring strategies and measuring PM competence
* 14:50- Shift from glorified Project Managers as Product Managers
* 16:40- Anticipation vs adaptation - being agile
* 19:20- Mistaking features for product strategy
* 22:30- A politically incorrect rapid fire
