Radhika Dutt is an entrepreneur and product leader who has participated in four acquisitions as a result of the products she built and advises organisations from high-tech startups to government agencies on building radical products (ones that create a fundamental change instead of optimising the status quo). She co-founded Radical Product Thinking as a movement of leaders creating vision-driven change. Radhika graduated from MIT with an SB and M.Eng in Electrical Engineering, and speaks nine languages while learning her tenth.
In this talk from BoS USA Online, Radhika talks about where iteration goes wrong, why Lean and Agile fall short, and how to diagnose the most common product diseases and overcome them. There are some great discussion points and tools covered in this talk that you can use in your team too.

AI won't take your job but someone using AI will take your job.
AI is a major topic of discussion today. Debates rage about the ethics, the potential for human extinction, obliteration of the workforce and plenty more between AI sceptics and AI believers. The variety and pace of development of the technology is unparalleled. It's almost impossible to keep up.
In this series of sessions at BoS Conference USA 2023 we’ll deep dive into how Autobooks retooled their business and ask the question, “What Happens if Product, Sales & Marketing Work Together?”

Ninnu will share her experiences and insights on the things people and companies do that get big stuff done or lead to the destruction of the company. She’s worked for startups and global companies, in highly regulated industries, as well as ones where there are few rules. She has a strong understanding of how to get the best from teams and how companies often fail their people. She will share the good and the bad and some frameworks to get the best from your teams and encourage them to fail.
Humans fear failure but some failure is essential to progress. How can you encourage the right kind of failure in your organisation?

Joe discusses why managing an effective external board for your organisation starts with understanding and managing your own internal board.
Your mind has a number of relatively discrete and often conflicting subpersonalities affecting how you come to decisions. The strongest personalities change in the moment. Understanding which personality is speaking and the history that informs them, helps you to understand why they give the advice they do.
You can learn to manage your mind, the voices you amplify and control in different contexts. The same is true for external boards – each member comes with unique history and perspective. Joe shares how understanding your inner board allows you to manage your board’s voices, amplify the right voices at the right time and know when you need to find new input.

Do you know what the top five regrets of the dying are? Wishing you had worked harder, surprisingly, isn’t on the list. Eleanor will discuss the importance of discovering one’s true purpose as a key step in the way to long-term fulfillment.
In this interactive session, (pens and paper provided…), she will challenge you to consider your own personal history, how it has shaped your identity and values and show how understanding that can help you lead a more meaningful life. Living a life that aligns with your values can be hard when you may have concerns about the opinions of others. Aside from the value individuals take from understanding their purpose, or ‘why’, in the workplace, more engaged and self-aware employees are happier, more engaged, productive and creative in the workplace – if your company values are aligned with theirs.

How well do you know your best customers? Why do they choose your solution over all the others? Reality check – most of us guess.
Knowing what to focus on is hard. Knowing who your best customers are, quantifying and measuring how they feel value, gives you a top decile advantage. It enables you to operationalise growth.
Claire will show you how to match your product experience with real customer needs. Your teams will be better equipped and more focused to unlock product growth and revenue.
You’ll learn:
- Why identifying your best customers unlocks your product growth strategy.
- How to use what customers value to reverse engineer your ideal product experience.
- How to identify your leading indicators of success (which will more effectively influence your lagging KPIs like your free/trial to paid % & MRR growth).
- How to spot success gaps in your customer experience your team can fill.

How can you take a team of infighting execs, each with their own goals and turn them into a disciplined team with a single shared purpose?
As you evolve, priorities may change, but the need to keep your team focused on the big goal (singular) of your org is a constant challenge for founders and professional leaders alike.
In this talk, Bruce will share the core principles you need to understand your stakeholders, negotiate priorities, set and manage the metrics that will drive your teams forward together in pursuit of the strategy you have set for the business.

Talk about the misuse of AI and the dangers it could bring if not used properly, focusing attention on the wrong things. Keeping humans at the center of the technology, not to replace.
“We are in 2107 years in the future, we are looking back in time to warn 2024 of the misuse of AI.
We have 2 billion less of the population, water levels rose and took land, harvest and some technology away from us and not everyone survived or knew how to do everything you do in the present.
We should have worked together more, we do now. We could have focused on the right things to use AI for rather than to help the rich stay rich and live longer. We appreciate what value people can offer rather than making them redundant.”

Gail Goodman The Long Slow SaaS Ramp of Death Slides from her talk at Business of Software Conference USA 2012
Watch the talk at https://businessofsoftware.org/2013/02/gail-goodman-constant-contact-how-to-negotiate-the-long-slow-saas-ramp-of-death/
Often startup founders spend time hoping for a miracle. We want some kind of free, viral, network effect – a silver bullet, so to speak – to suddenly 'flip the switch' and skyrocket our company to profitability.
But that’s not the reality for most software entrepreneurs. That kind of success takes work; there are no silver bullets.
This creeping progression is what Gail Goodman, former CEO of Constant Contact, refers to as ‘the long, slow SaaS ramp of death’.
Over time, as turning a profit seems to take longer and longer, founders start asking themselves valid questions like, 'Are we going to make it?' and 'What am I going to need to do to get to that next level, and how do I grow?'
Goodman argues that the answer lies in focusing on two major factors – customer feedback and positive metrics. But the path to those factors is littered with obstacles.
