About the lecture:
Thinking ‘Product’ as a founder
A product manager who is also a startup founder is responsible for the success of the company before the success of the product.
Product decisions are derived not only from customer needs, but also from marketing goals, sales, unit economic, fundraising, HR, and more.
In a startup, the level of uncertainty is high and the activity is constantly evolving. In such a reality, the goals are short-term, the cost of delay is high, and the decision-making process is super agile and minimalistic.
On the other hand, the founder’s toolset is wider, and the product is just one tool for fulfilling the company’s vision.
