Be fundamentally different, not incrementally better | Jag Duggal (Nubank, Facebook, Google)
Jag Duggal is chief product officer at Nubank, a decacorn neobank founded in Brazil. It’s valued at over $30 billion, is bigger than Coinbase, Robinhood, Affirm, and SoFi combined, has 100 million customers (more than Bank of America!) while only operating in three countries in Latin America, and 80% to 90% of its growth comes through word of mouth. Prior to Nubank, Jag was a director of product management at Facebook, a senior vice president at Quantcast, and a product leader at Google. In our conversation, we discuss:
• How Nubank builds a fanatical user base
• Tactics for driving word-of-mouth growth
• Measuring customer love through the Sean Ellis score
• The importance of strategic clarity
• The role of category design in creating successful products
• Why companies should strive to be “fundamentally different,” not “incrementally better”
• Nubank’s vision for an AI-powered banking future

    Excellent session! There was a lot of valuable information to take in and apply. I have a question for Vikrama: What does a typical day look like for you, especially after work? Do you have any hobbies or activities you enjoy?

    • @vikramadhiman536
      @vikramadhiman536 15 годин тому

      Thank you. No two days look alike after work. In the slightly indulgent ones I love to explore new restaurants (have a handle to write reviews online too), understand and debate the latest in fashion trends with friends who are not in tech and sometimes binge watch series. I also take out time out to focus on professional pursuits like listening to podcasts. I also love to read a lot - articles, magazines, books and so on. I'd love to be more regular in some of the online courses I enrolled in. I got obsessed with capital markets during the pandemic and have become relatively better at financial planning but for me, MFs work out the best - I've tried but found that to be the sweet spot rather than agonising myself over every trade, crypto and so on. What I would like to get better at is cultivate hobbies on the health side - I just started a martial arts class but I am not too regular at it. One of the other things I am going to spend time on is volunteering for the communities for elderly - this is something I have been thinking about a lot recently.

    It was a great episode. After listening to many podcasts, I always get some inspiration and ideas, especially energy. I come from Asia, and I've been listening to Lenny's podcast for a while, mainly to understand and learn about the thinking and working styles of different types of companies and product managers. I feel that Lenny is very consciously planning to cover different aspects as much as possible. As a product manager for almost 10 years, I increasingly feel that while tactics and frameworks are important, what's more important is the core and unchanging things, such as your company's culture and deep-rooted habits, while in terms of product manager skills, it's communication, mindset, way of thinking, making things happen and understanding yourself. Tactics can help you grow in the short term, but these unchanging things take you further. A product manager has to work together with the team to move forward. And in this episode, I saw the most original and essential aspects of a PM from Mihika.

    39:35 These 2 understandings help me to process tough feedback: First, "People complain not about me, but about my work. I am not what I do. I am not my work. And everything is fine with me. My work might need some fixes, but I am okay." And Second: "Whenever people tell me something, they tell only 2 things: "please" and "thank you". When they complain, they ask "please don't do it this way" (it hurts them somehow). And when they glad, they say "thank you for doing this for me" (it helps them somehow)".

    There is a model-building obsession amongst ex consultants, unfortunately these models have less than random shot at predicting success and growth, as evidenced by inordinate amounts of venture failures. Better alternatives will be to do some logical consideration of strategic choices, understand emotions & positioning, and GTM based on field research.

    My key Takeaways Building cool stuff isn't enough. Focus on *3 Ws:* 1. *What you produce:* As a new PM, focus on clear *output* to build momentum. This doesn't have to be grand strategy. Deliver *results*, even if it's a small launch or experiment. (This hit hard, felt like I missed it) 2. *What you bring to the table*: Strong product artifacts (like PRDs) based on data, design, research, and strategy are crucial. They guide discussions, smooth sprint planning, and ensure informed decisions (think: Jira board). 3. *What is your Operating model:* Collaboration is key! Raise concerns constructively and prioritize collaborative decision-making. Frame your pushback logically, not emotionally. *Avoiding the pitfalls:* Focus on controllable aspects. Embrace change, learn, and develop new skills. Compare yourself to high performers to identify areas for growth. Reframe your self-perception and continuously improve. *PMing:* PMs act as the *bridge* between data, design, tech, and strategy. We use "science" to inform the "art". Tip: Align your actions with your words. Consistent effort and dedication are key to personal and professional growth within a company.

      @vikramadhiman536 4 дні тому

      Hello Akash. I get this question a lot (assuming you are a PM with a tech background and want to get better at design). Like everything PM, there are the hard parts and the soft parts. The hard parts are covered in interview frameworks like CIRCLE, research tools (quantitative and qualitative - recommend Introduction to Research Methods, and picking up a tool like Figma. Then, there is the soft parts - books like Small Data are a good start - however, the key is to understand human psychology which is a huge area. Two things that will help you get there - go and talk to the customers and understand their emotional, social and functional needs. And second, pair up with the best designers and researchers in your org and brainstorm together. It's a journey. Don't expect a 5/5 in 6 months and keep at it. Good luck! Let me know if this is too overwhelming or confusing. I'll try to write a detailed post on this soon.

I'm curious about what exactly happened for companies like Instagram, Slack and others which went through massive pivots or several rounds of pivots, and the parameters under different scenarios. Is it possible that you could invite one or two founders who went through that process and can talk about pivoting from the founder's perspective?

Summarising notes from business discussions and sharing with the wider product engineering team (I got feedback that I am the PM who shares business contest candidly) 2. Being the first one to try the new product and raise bugs (got the feedback that I don't live in my ivory tower) 3. Preparing the narrative for next sprint (iteration) ahead of time and circulating it for feedback (got creds for eliminating the pre-sprint planning meeting) These are all straight from the useful output playbook - helps you, helps the team ❤
