Radhika Dutt talked with me about the importance of vision, careful pivots, and the balance between innovation and optimization.
Her concept of a vision is, to me, one of the very few that I think is actually cutting through the noise and has an impact aside from the cookie-cutter frameworks we had so far.
It’s beyond processes over mere goal-setting in achieving long-term success in startups.
takeaways
Pivots should be treated as silver bullets, used deliberately.
A strong vision can save not just a product line but also sanity.
Innovation should not be sacrificed for optimization.
Processes should be prioritized over mere goal-setting for better outcomes.
