Testimonials

• Vidya is a mentor whose guidance is both refreshingly direct and grounded in real industry insight. Her advice was damn practical and to the face. Based on my profile, She encouraged me to consider Program or Project Manager roles in product companies as the most practical pathway to Product Management. What truly sets Vidya apart is her dual career journey, after her impactful stints as a Product Manager and Senior Product Manager at PayPal, she also co-founded Pauket and led it as COO. This blend of high-impact leadership and hands-on product experience means she understands both organizational and entrepreneurial angles. In our conversation, she nudged me to move beyond just business metrics and focus on telling my story through product metrics, always keeping things product-centric and conversational, not just a report. Her own positioning is outstanding truly something to aspire to! The session with her was invaluable, and she helped me see the need for technical competence over theory. If you want honest, actionable mentoring from someone who’s navigated both fast-growth start-ups and big tech, Vidya is simply the best fit to guide your journey into Product Management. Highly recommended!

• My session with Srividya was truly insightful and transformative. She provided exceptional clarity about the distinct roles of Product Owners and Product Managers, which helped me understand where I currently stand and where I want to grow. What impressed me the most was the clear roadmap and structured action plan she shared to transition into Product Management. Srividya also explained in detail the tools, frameworks, and day-to-day practices that a Product Manager follows, making it very practical and easy to relate to. Her guidance has given me confidence, direction, and a much deeper understanding of about Product Management.”
