When Namrata Sarmah became a CPO, the job role didn’t really exist the way that it does today. Two CPO roles later, and she’s using her power to transform product teams.

INTO University Partnerships marked a vital role in her journey, getting comfortable with the unteachable nature of the CPO position. She’s also the Founder of Women in Product UK. 

She joins us on Leaders Unscripted to uncover how CPOs become change agents, which unexpected aspect of strategy is hardest, and embracing the transformational nature of the job.

This episode covers:

  • How Namrata developed naturally into the CPO role
  • Why nobody can truly teach you how to become a successful CPO
  • Picking your battles
  • The unexpected, hardest aspect of strategy, and a need to be flexible with it
  • Advice for other CPOs finding themselves as a change agent
