From Certainty to Ambiguity: The PM's Art of Navigating the Unknown
Linkedin
January 17, 2026
Last week, I came across an article about Googleyness—a mix of curiosity, bold thinking, and collaborative problem-solving—and it made me pause. It reminded me of how I’ve grown as a product manager over the past decade, evolving from mastering roadmaps and deadlines to thriving in ambiguity and driving innovation. It also sparked a question: What will the next decade of AI products demand from us? As I reflect on my journey and look to the future, one thing is clear—building AI products isn’t just about technology; it’s about shaping experiences that redefine human potential.

Every December, I sit down to write my performance review—my own, my peers’, my team’s. After 15 years in leadership, I thought I knew the rhythm. But this year, something changed.

What Happens if the Present Can Change the Past?

March 26, 2025
Can Today's Choices Change the Past? Your Brain Thinks So - Especially While Shopping.
In the strange world of quantum physics, there's a famous idea called the Delayed-Choice Experiment. It suggests that a particle’s behavior in the past isn’t truly determined until you observe it in the present. The outcome depends on what you do now, which somehow reshapes what happened before.
Success Has Many Fathers, but Failure Is an Orphan

Product management is a team sport, and success is often a shared celebration. When things go well, there’s a collective sense of achievement—leadership acknowledges the impact, sales teams highlight it in conversations with customers, and engineering teams take pride in what they’ve built.

Building for All Ages: The surprising strategy behind LEGO’s success.
Linkedln
January 14, 2025
Last weekend, my son and I headed to the Lego Store, expecting a fun but routine trip. Little did I know, this visit would not only spark joy but also deliver unexpected lessons on innovation, customer psychology, and community engagement—lessons any product manager could apply.
From Paper to Precision: The OCR Revolution
Linkedln
January 09, 2025
In my earlier career, I witnessed firsthand how operational bottlenecks could disrupt workflows in industries reliant on manual document processing. Back then, our operations teams were buried under stacks of Mark Sheets, Degree Certificates, and Employment Letters. These documents had to be digitized and processed to trigger RPA (Robotic Process Automation) workflows for order fulfillment. But the tools at our disposal were far from perfect.
The Dance Between Instinct and Algorithms

I found myself staring at two dashboards. One showed a perfectly aligned dataset on hiring trends across industries, while the other revealed glaring anomalies that seemed to defy logic. As the Director of Product Management for a research automation initiative, I was tasked with steering our AI-powered insights platform toward delivering precise, actionable intelligence for our clients.
The Day I Stopped Skipping Ads—and Started Mastering My Pitch
Linkedin
December 28, 2024
I used to hate ads. Like everyone else, I didn’t just skip them—I despised them. Ads were an annoyance, a five-second obstacle between me and the content I actually wanted to watch. Clicking “Skip” wasn’t just a reflex; it was my rebellion against wasted time.
The Day AI Model Spoke Back

The room was silent—except for the sound of shifting chairs and awkward coughs. I was leading a high-stakes presentation along with other students for my final Master’s Project submission at the University of Toronto, showcasing the results of our new AI-powered risk assessment model. The metrics were impressive: improved accuracy, faster decisions, and increased profitability.
Epistemic Dissonance in Product Management
Linkedln
December 10, 2024
In the digital age, product management isn’t just about building features—it’s about managing expectations, perceptions, and beliefs. Enter Epistemic Dissonance, a psychological state where a gap exists between what users think they know and what actually is true. This gap influences how users experience, evaluate, and engage with products.
When a Crisis Turned Me Into a True Product Owner

December 08, 2024
Some lessons in product management aren’t learned in conference rooms or through best practices—they are earned in moments of crisis, where the stakes are high, and the margin for error is razor-thin. December 21st, 4 PM—that date is etched in my memory, not for holiday celebrations, but for a defining moment in my career.
To Sell Is Human: A Product Manager’s Perspective

The Gen-Z Approach: From AI Experiments to Everyday Solutions
Linkedln
November 12, 2024
Every journey in AI is different, and mine has been filled with both product insights and, oddly enough, a bit of French homework. You see, it all started last September when school reopened. My son came home one evening, full of energy and...French homework. Now, as an immigrant from India, I can proudly say I’m multilingual—I speak five languages! But French? Definitely not in the lineup. Yet here I was, expected to help him with his conjugations and grammar like it was no big deal.
The Plateau of a Citizen Data Scientist: Turning Data into Decisions
Linkedln
November 11, 2024
Two years ago, I started down the path of becoming a “citizen data scientist.” Like many product managers, I’d felt the pressure to adapt to an increasingly data-driven world, and my early successes in applying AI to ID verification only fuelled my enthusiasm. I learned the basics of analytics, took on small AI projects, and began to see myself as a data-savvy product manager.
Citizen Data Science in Product Management
Linkedln
November 10, 2024
When I first began my journey as a Product Manager, ID verification was just another task on the checklist. It was essential, of course, but I didn’t see its potential as an innovation driver. We implemented traditional identity checks, and while they met our needs at the time, my focus wasn’t on transforming this process with the latest advancements. I believed in its potential but hadn’t yet explored AI’s power in reshaping its efficiency and security.

Airlines are working to keep up with the shifting diets of their passengers. A recent survey found on-board services and boarding policies are important to people when picking flights. Some airlines have hired celebrity chefs, expanded gluten-free and vegan options, ditched common allergens like peanuts and started using better ingredients, according to CNBC. United even started offering a meal designed for people who are vegetarian and eat fish and eggs. Airlines seem willing to make the various options available as they enjoy healthy profits.
Is your Scrum Master: a Watch Man or a Gate Keeper
Linkedin
August 05, 2015
(Who am I / Naan Yaaru..?)
Does it sound weird..? Many times we come across different questions from Management that – Scrum Master is the Watchman to the team. He is the Gatekeeper for the product quality. He is the only non-corrupted police in the society called agile teams. I started wondering how come a scrum master can play these many roles…. (Watchman for the Agile Team / Gatekeeper for the Quality / Non-Corrupted Policeman / a Preacher / a Motivator / an Evangelist / a cross trainer / a cook book writer / an IC / Project Coordinator / a Consultant / Master in Art of Living / what else and what not..?)
The Shelf Just Lost the First Moment of Truth
Linkedin
June 10, 2026
The promotion now has to convince something before it convinces someone.
For twenty years, retail has run on one idea: the First Moment of Truth P&G's name for the few seconds at the shelf where a shopper takes in the options and decides.
Win that moment, win the sale.
That moment just moved. And the shelf isn't where it happens anymore.
Three months from now, a shopper may never see your flyer. Not because they ignored it, because an AI agent read it first.
For the first time in retail history, a promotion has to convince something before it convinces someone.
To see where this goes, look outside retail, at publishing.
