Being a founder or product person calls for enjoying the ride even when things are uncertain. While grit and passion are the regulars, it takes a few more skills like competence, agency, clarity of thought, to be able to navigate that uncertainty. And this means, you’ve got to be ready to embrace challenges, relearn some of what you seemingly thought you knew already, and find new pieces of information to put together. First things first, how to get started with all of this?
Shreyas Doshi is a seasoned product leader and presently a fantastic advisor to many founders across the globe. Shreyas formerly led product teams at Stripe, Yahoo, Google, Twitter, and is most known to this world as a product coach who writes detailed ‘threads’ on many unsaid and important topics.
In this video, Shreyas and Aishwarya chat about how high IQ hinders with accepting and absorbing different lenses of thought that people share. While this is surely a challenge for product builders to navigate, the solution is to think beyond 'holier-than-thou' attitude and comprehend the 'why' behind other stakeholders' and customers' perspectives.
