Radhika Dutt

Radhika Dutt is the author of Radical Product Thinking and now working on her new book, Escaping the Performance Trap, represented by the same agent behind Atomic Habits. Radhika tackles how our obsession with OKRs and quarterly KPIs, once lauded as miracle solutions, ends up crushing curiosity, collaboration, and long-term thinking—often demotivating the high performers organizations most need to protect.

Her alternative, OHLs (Objectives, Hypotheses, and Learnings), reframes performance. Instead of chasing scores, teams set up puzzles to solve and learn from experiments. This disciplined method has driven concrete results, like a company breaking out of stagnation and doubling sales two years running. Radhika’s message is packed with real stories and clear tactics tailored for everyone from product leaders to startup founders and executives asking if there’s a smarter way to work.

Beyond her writing, Radhika advises organizations globally, including the Monetary Authority of Singapore, Singapore’s central bank and financial regulator. She brings an actionable playbook and sparky discussions around how we can redesign performance to put learning at the heart of culture and innovation.
