My guest today is Lomit Patel, VP of Growth at IMVU. Prior to IMVU, Lomit managed growth at many early stage startups including Roku (IPO), TrustedID (acquired by Equifax), Texture (acquired. by Apple) and Earthlink. Lomit is a frequent speaker at different conferences and recognized as a Mobile Hero by Liftoff.

In today’s episode, we talk about one of the pivotal moments in Lomit’s career – when he presented a one-word strategic plan to kick off a massive transition within his company IMVU. We go into the circumstances that preceded his one-word plan, his thinking behind it – and how he not only rallied his team to execute upon his one-word plan but also drove some massive impact as a result of executing this plan, which resulted in 50% year on year growth after years of flatlined growth numbers. In this episode, we go very deep in exploring the anatomy of a huge transition that originated in Lomit’s one-word strategic plan – and I find some of the details in here incredibly fascinating.
