FOF 201 | Alisha Outridge. The AI Founder Playbook.

Entrepreneurship

Alisha Outridge, creator of the AI Founder Playbook and a 15-year product leader at Meta, Reuters, and TuneCore, explains why most AI founders build products nobody will pay for — and how to think like a product leader before an AI builder. The conversation covers building "on rented land," mapping your competitive terrain, avoiding "productivity theater" with clear Northstar metrics, what separates founders who ship, and why, by 2030, AI will change everything except us.

FOF 199 | Bogdan Snisar. We Still Want To Trust Humans.

Product & Engineering

Bogdan Snisar, engineering leader at Solea AI and formerly at Revolut and Wix, explains how AI is reshaping software engineering and how companies operate. The conversation covers where AI genuinely creates business value, the rise of the "product engineer," the mental models to unlearn (including thinking about what not to build), how attention becomes the real bottleneck when you ship hundreds of PRs a month, and why — even in an AI-first world — trust and the ability to deliver still come down to humans.

FOF 198 | Sridhar Ravilla. Who Owns The Outcome?

Leadership

Sridhar Ravilla, fractional executive and author of Transformation That Lands and Humans at Scale, explains why so many transformation programs fail despite executive support, talent, and investment — and why the real issue is ownership, not strategy. The conversation covers execution over strategy decks, the human side of AI adoption, recovering stalled programs past "green dashboard syndrome," and leading through uncertainty by thinking clearer, not faster.
