BONUS: Guardrails Over Processes—How to Scale Teams Without Killing Creativity What actually slows down tech teams—lack of talent, or lack of ownership? In this episode, Prashanth Tondapu shares lessons from leading through global-scale failures, scaling from a small team to a 100-person company, and discovering why guardrails beat rigid processes when it comes to building teams that own outcomes and execute with discipline. Diffusion of Accountability: When Everyone Is Responsible, Nobody Is "Crisis is not the problem. Crisis is the one that uncovers the problem that has always existed." Early in his career, Prashanth witnessed a large-scale failure at a major technology company—not because the team lacked talent, but because accountability had become diffused. When too many people are responsible for something, it translates to nobody being responsible. The team was brilliant individually, but there was no clear demarcation of who owned what outcome. On good days, everything worked. But when things went wrong, there was no single person who could no longer delegate accountability to someone else. In this segment, we also refer to the concept from Extreme Ownership by Jocko Willink. Prashant argues for: outcome can only come with 100% emotional commitment to a particular problem, and when five people share that commitment, each carries only 20%. That's where breakdowns happen. The Leadership Design Problem: From Computers to People "I was a developer who imagined that humans are also going to be as predictable as computers. Until 6 or 7 people, it works well because you can be everywhere. But as soon as we increased above 7, I was not able to be everywhere." Prashanth's journey as a founder mirrors what many tech leaders experience at scale. Starting Innostax at 27 as a developer with no management experience, he initially treated people like predictable systems. Below seven people, it worked—he could be the hero founder, the catch-all. But beyond that threshold, he had to learn delegation, which meant learning to trust. First came the people-dependent phase, then the process-oriented phase with SOPs (Standard Operating Procedures) for everything—even how APIs should look. The SOPs made the team fast at execution, but their clients noticed something troubling: "Your guys do not even ask any questions." The rigid processes had suppressed the very creativity and critical thinking they needed. That feedback became the catalyst for the next evolution: becoming a people-first company. Guardrails vs. Processes: Freeing Creativity Within Structure "If something goes wrong, our guardrail is: we will just ask you one question—what was your intent behind doing this?" Prashanth draws a sharp distinction between processes and guardrails. Processes tell you exactly what to do and how to do it—they create predictable execution but kill creativity. Guardrails define the boundaries within which people have freedom to be creative and solve problems their own way. At Innostax, guardrails take practical forms: Time-on-task guardrails: If a task takes longer than expected, ask for help—don't rabbit-hole into it for three days Don't be a hero: When friction appears with a client or a problem, escalate early rather than trying to solve everything alone The intent review: When something goes wrong, instead of punishment, they ask three questions—was the intent right, was the approach right, and what was the outcome? If intent and approach were right but it still failed, that's the company's problem, not the individual's This framework creates psychological safety while maintaining accountability. People know they won't be penalized for honest mistakes made with good intent, which means they surface problems early rather than hiding them. Vision Elements and the People-First Company "The outcome is not just what is expected, but outcome also consists of what is not expected. People come out in so many creative, great ways that they end up surprising you." The shift to a people-first company meant replacing rigid SOPs with what Prashanth calls "vision elements"—broader directional guidance like "we are working for the client, we need to give the best for the client in the resources that we have." This gives teams a larger sandbox to work in while guardrails prevent them from going too far off course. The daily rhythm includes team leads reviewing work summaries—not to micromanage, but to catch misalignment early and offer support. Prashanth emphasizes that guardrails must be created with emotional intelligence and detachment. If you create guardrails assuming you're also part of the problem, they'll be biased and ineffective. That's why he considers emotional intelligence the prerequisite skill for any leader designing team structures. The Books That Changed Everything "Whenever I was reading through the fixed mindset guy, it was like it was describing me. And that actually changed everything." Prashanth recommends two foundational books for leaders building ownership-driven teams. First, Mindset by Carol Dweck—a book that cracked his own fixed mindset as a confident developer who thought he knew everything. Reading about the fixed mindset felt like reading his own biography, and that uncomfortable recognition opened him to listening more, seeking exposure to experts, and believing there were perspectives he hadn't encountered yet. Second, Emotional Intelligence by Daniel Goleman—because without mastering emotional intelligence, everything you hear feels personal, clouding your judgment and making you too close to the problem to design effective solutions for your team. Self-reflection Question: Are you building guardrails that give your team freedom to be creative within clear boundaries, or are you still writing processes that tell people exactly what to do—and in the process, suppressing the very thinking you hired them for?

In this EUVC Live at GoWest episode, Olivier Tonneau, Founding Partner Quantonation, Jeppe Høier, Co-Host at EUVC Corporate, Paolo Pio, Co-founder and General Partner at Exceptional Ventures, Fergus Bell, Founder and Managing Partner at The Players Fund, and Prashant Agarwal, Chairman and Managing Director at Scandian xplore one defining question:How does Europe turn frontier innovation into global scale?Across quantum, corporate capital, longevity, and sport, the same pattern emerges: Europe doesn't lack talent or research. It lacks the capital and market architecture required to scale strategic industries fast enough to stay independent.Olivier opens with Europe's quantum paradox. Europe supplies a meaningful share of deployed quantum computers globally, with strong startup and research clusters across the Nordics, France, Germany, and the UK. The science is world-class — but the financing is breaking. Over the last 12 months, the funding ratio between Europe and the US has shifted from roughly 1:2 to nearly 1:7, accelerating US scale-up, public listings, and acquisition pressure. Europe has 12–24 months to respond — not to avoid failure, but to avoid becoming the lab while others become the market.Jeppe shifts the lens to corporates. Corporate venture capital represents roughly 25% of global VC volume, yet the average lifespan of a CVC unit is only 3.7 years. His argument is blunt: most corporates launch venture arms believing they are “doing VC,” when they are actually building a strategic instrument without the operating system required to sustain it. Without durable governance — and a clear Build, Buy, Partner model — corporate venture becomes fragile instead of strategic.Paolo reframes health and longevity as deep tech moving at software speed. Genome sequencing has collapsed from decades to hours. mRNA proved that biology timelines can compress dramatically. With AI now embedded in diagnostics and discovery, health is entering an exponential era — and venture is being pulled with it.The session closes with a thesis most investors still underestimate. Fergus and Prashant argue sport is no longer entertainment — it is venture infrastructure. Athletes and rights holders are becoming capital allocators and distribution rails. Elite sport has evolved into a real-world deployment environment for deep tech, health tech, AI, and performance systems — where validation happens under pressure and at global scale.The takeaway across all five perspectives is clear:Europe invents early.But scale requires architecture.Late-stage capital depth.Liquidity.Corporate integration.Coordination.What's covered:00:30 Europe's scale question — five lenses on one problem02:00 Quantum's paradox — Europe leads in science, not in financing05:00 The 1:7 funding gap — why the next 12–24 months matter07:00 What Europe can do — capital architecture, procurement, scale funds11:30 Corporate venture — 25% of global VC, but structurally fragile13:30 Why CVCs fail — the 3-year vs 6-year test and governance gaps16:30 Longevity as deep tech — health moving at software speed21:30 AI in health — diagnostics, discovery, and exponential biology27:30 Sport as venture infrastructure — athletes and rights holders as rails34:30 Deep tech in sport — validation, performance systems, adoption under pressure40:00 Final takeaway — Europe has innovation; it needs scale architecture

Episode recorded across three time zones - Singapore, US, and Sweden Johan and Gustav welcome Prashant Verma (Microsoft Singapore ISD) and Hemanth Kumar (Microsoft Azure FastTrack) for a technical deep dive into the batch telemetry agent. Prashant's origin story reveals that the agent emerged from his Premier Field Engineer days, handling APAC escalations for slow-running batch jobs and throttling issues, and recognizing that customers needed self-service access to insights previously requiring support tickets. The conversation positions the agent as a "team member" that democratizes root cause analysis, bridging the gap between technical Application Insights data and business users who lack Kusto query skills. Hemant emphasizes the transformation: rather than context-switching between Teams conversations and Application Insights dashboards, system admins can troubleshoot directly within Teams, where business users are already reporting issues. Johan's thesis emerges: fewer people logging into Finance & Operations is actually better since it's not intuitive for non-daily users. The agent supports this by making troubleshooting accessible to IT staff unfamiliar with F&O's interface. Gustav tests the waters on autonomous monitoring - could agents proactively ping Teams when detecting anomalies? The answer: marry Application Insights anomaly detection with agentic analysis to create alerts that inform users of slow critical jobs and suggest remediation. The MCP server integration (version 46 required) enables self-healing actions, such as restarting batch jobs, though both hosts and guests emphasize guardrails. Gustav suggests SharePoint lists indicating which jobs are safe to auto-restart; testing reveals Claude 4.5 best follows these instructions without hallucination compared to GPT models. A revealing war story: a customer configured batch jobs requesting 300 threads when their environment only supported 160 total threads, strangling the entire system for a week until Prashant identified it through telemetry. The agent now surfaces these misconfigurations instantly. Setup requires just five minutes with existing Application Insights (ISM telemetry no longer needed), plus 15 minutes for agent installation. Model selection matters: 4.1 suffices for simple queries, 5.0 for complex analysis, and Sonnet for query generation.

In Episode 1, I sit down with Prashant Fuloria, CEO of Fundbox (and my cohost for the episodes that follow). We kick things off with The State of SMB Lending, level-setting with data from the Federal Reserve's 2025 report on small business credit (based on a 2024 survey of 7,600 business owners). For the first time since 2021, small businesses were more likely to report that revenues decreased rather than increased in the year prior to the survey. Translation: SMBs are surviving; not thriving. Then, we zoom out from the data to consider why costs are rising, why some businesses are defaulting instead of declaring bankruptcy, and how embedded finance is changing both borrower behavior and lender economics. Prashant brings the long view of Fundbox's credit data to the table: how performance differs across industries, why CAC still kills standalone lenders, and how alignment among banks, fintechs, and platforms is the only sustainable model. It's a foundational conversation for anyone tracking the next decade of SMB capital: rich with data and grounded in the here and now (with a clear sense of where the stack's heading!). Subscribe now to catch what's next: candid, can't-miss conversations with leaders from Plaid, Stripe Capital, and Lead Bank! This episode was brought to you by Fundbox.

Bihar में बहुत बड़ा खेल हो गया | Prashant Kishore, Nitish, Shah | Diwali Bonanza | Harsh Kumar
इस साल जहां राष्ट्रीय स्वयंसेवक संघ के 100 साल पूरे हुए. साथ ही भारतीय समाजवादी आंदोलन के भी 90 साल पूरे हुए. समाजवादी विचारधारा से उपजे आंदोलन ने भारत को इतना कुछ दिया है कि उंगलियों पर गिन पाना शायद मुश्किल हो. इसी आंदोलन ने भारत को वो नेता भी दिए जिन्होंने आगे चलकर केंद्र और राज्यों की राजनीति में अहम रोल निभाया. तो हमने सोचा कि ज़रा ठहर कर समझते हैं कि ये विचारधारा जिसे दुनियाभर के कई देशों ने अपनाया. उसे भारत ने किस तरह आत्मसात किया? क्यों Socialist शब्द संविधान की मूल प्रति में शामिल नहीं था? और क्यों इमरजेंसी के दौर में इसे संविधान में शामिल किया गया? सवाल कई सारे उठते हैं- क्या नेहरू समाजवादी थे? क्या भगत सिंह समाजवादी थे? या जेपी-लोहिया के हिसाब से समाजवाद का विचार कैसा था? समझेंगे कि आज़ादी और आज़ादी के इतने सालों बाद आज समाजवाद भारतीय राजनीति में कहां खड़ा मिलता है? पूछेंगे कि बिहार-यूपी जो समाजवादी नेताओं का गढ़ रहे, उनमें ग्रोथ का ग्राफ़ किस हद तक समाजवाद के कारण था? ये सब जानने के लिए हम पहुंचे पूर्व राज्यसभा सांसद, जेडीयू नेता और वरिष्ठ समाजवादी नेता KC Tyagi के पास. हमें तो Padhaku Nitin का ये एपिसोड रिकॉर्ड करने में बहुत आनंद आया, उम्मीद करते हैं सुनने-देखने में आपको भी आएगा. अगर आए तो तारीफ़ें सुझाव भेजिएगा, कमेंट बॉक्स खुला है.
न्याय व्यवस्था लोकनीति का एक ऐसा पहलु है जिसके लिए हम सभी पूरी तरह से सरकारी तंत्र पर निर्भर हैं। भला इसमें मार्केट कैसे हो सकता है? वैसे मोटे तौर पर ये बात सही है लेकिन कुछ प्रकार के झगड़े सरकारी न्याय तंत्र के बाहर भी सुलझाए जाते हैं। इसे कहते हैं आर्बिट्रेशन याने कि मध्यस्थता। इसी विषय को विस्तार से समझेंगे ट्रस्टब्रिज से जुड़े लीगल एक्सपर्ट प्रशांत नारंग के साथ।We discuss:* What is Arbitration?* Types of disputes that qualify for Arbitration* Framework for Arbitration in India* Adhoc vs Institutional Arbitration* Under the shadow of High Courts* A Market for Law and Order* Approach of Govt Organisations* Reforms to improve the processAlso, please note that Puliyabaazi is now available on Youtube with video.Related Links:Live Mint | The resolution of disputes over public procurement: Let's strengthen reforms by Prashant NarangMoneycontrol | The Arbitration Retreat: A short-sighted policy move? by Prashant NarangMoneycontrol | Solutions to invigorate India's lacklustre arbitration system by Prashant NarangRelated Episodes:हमारी क़ानून व्यवस्था का रिपोर्ट कार्ड.

What happens when you bring together a practicing monk, a seasoned tech entrepreneur, and an AI education pioneer? In this episode of The Tech Talks Daily Podcast, I sit down with Prashant Raizada, the driving force behind Lumi Network, to explore how we can build a workforce ready for the AI era, not just in skills, but in mindset and purpose. Prashant shares how his journey from global banking and McKinsey to founding five startups worth over $2 billion eventually led him to education technology. But Lumi is not just another edtech venture. It's a mission-driven platform focused on upskilling the current and future workforce through human-AI collaboration, regional transformation initiatives like the Scale Up North East campaign, and a clear-eyed view of what education should look like in a rapidly changing world. We talk about the need to rethink our approach to curriculum design, the limits of traditional university models, and why collaboration between industry, academia, and government isn't just helpful, it's urgent. Prashant explains why AI isn't a threat to humans but an amplifier of our abilities when used with intention. And he shares how Lumi's "Quest" programme trains participants in collaborative problem-solving while subtly building the 12 essential skills for thriving in an AI-powered economy. We also tackle the bigger picture: why education has often been overlooked in AI investment conversations, and what needs to change for the sector to finally unlock the $10 trillion opportunity ahead of it. Prashant doesn't shy away from the challenges but makes a compelling case for why the UK could become a global exporter of a scalable, human-centric education model. So, what would it take to scale this nationally? And if we're serious about upskilling 7.5 million people by 2030, who's going to deliver it? Prashant believes startups like Lumi could be a central part of the answer and the time to act is now. Could meaningful AI education be the missing piece in our national skills strategy? And what does real collaboration between humans and machines actually look like in practice? Let us know your thoughts after listening.

This week, Newslaundry's Abhinandan Sekhri, Manisha Pande and Raman Kirpal were joined by former Supreme Court judge Justice Madan Lokur and political journalist Neerja Choudhury.Neerja describes Dr Manmohan Singh, who died this week, as a “gentleman politician and a unifying figure” who will be remembered for his “decency in politics” and landmark contributions such as the RTI Act, MGNREGA, and the Indo-US nuclear deal. Justice Lokur says, “He was a great man and a great loss for the country.” Manisha reflects on the media's role during Singh's tenure, saying, “Back then, leaders were judged critically but fairly, without fear of retribution.”Abhinandan adds, “Manmohan Singh's leadership taught us that decency is not a weakness but a strength in politics.”On the media and judicial accountability, Justice Lokur acknowledges the increased public scrutiny on courts. “There must be ways to check judges without undermining the institution,” he says, referencing the need for mechanisms beyond impeachment. Neerja criticises the sensationalism that's come to define election coverage, saying the media's role “is to hold power accountable, not amplify divisive rhetoric”.The panel also reflects on key events of 2024. Neerja cautions that the “challenge to Modi's leadership might come from the extreme right within the BJP itself”. Manisha points out the troubling rhetoric in election speeches, adding, “The prime minister's speeches targeting minorities were demoralising and crossed a line.”Raman highlights the year's highs and lows, saying, “The coalition government formation was a relief for democracy, but the political language this year hit new lows.”This and a lot more.

This week, Newslaundry's Abhinandan Sekhri, Manisha Pandey, and Jayashree Arunachalam were joined by parliamentary affairs expert and journalist Meghnad Saha. On the debate on the One Nation, One Election bill, Jayashree says that “the proposal reflects a strong anti-federalism stance.” She pointed out that while the bill may reduce costs, “it could strip states of their power”. Manisha says, “In terms of organising this it could be a mammoth task, especially with the inclusion of panchayat elections, making it an expensive exercise.” Abhinandan asks, “Is Modi the right leader to bring about such changes?” The panel then discusses the row over scuffle in parliament between the opposition MPs and those in the governing parties. Meghnad says, “It's like a WWE match in Parliament.” Abhinandan questions its media coverage, “Do you feel any shame or guilt about the way you work? How do you face your children?” This and a lot more. Tune in!We have a page for subscribers to send letters to our shows. If you want to write to Hafta, click here.

This week, Newslaundry's Abhinandan Sekhri, Raman Kirpal, and Manisha Pandey were joined by journalist Faye D'Souza.On the BJP's narrative against George Soros, Abhinandan says, “Adani money is good, Soros money bad? No sensible discussion has happened around it.” Faye says, “We are living in a post-truth world where ridiculous claims take root and attention spans have shrunk too much for nuanced conversations.”On the Congress's response to allegations about links with Soros, Manisha says, “Their communication is stale. You can't keep repeating the same thing without innovation.” She points out that news channels have been quoting dubious sources like “nancho.net” to accuse Sonia Gandhi of collusion with Soros.The panel then discusses the misuse of dowry laws and the tragic case of a techie's suicide in Bengaluru. Anand says, “Lawyers often weaponise these cases, and the Supreme Court has already intervened to mandate preliminary investigations before arrests.” Faye emphasises the need for balanced discourse. On media coverage of the issue, Abhinandan says, “The TikTokisation of news has taken over.” On the Kapoor family's meeting with Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Manisha says, “The event was supposed to honour Raj Kapoor, but it ended up being all about praising Modi.”This and a lot more.

This week, Newslaundry's Manisha Pande, Jayashree Arunachalam, Raman Kirpal, and Anand Vardhan are joined by Newslaundry reporter Prateek Goyal.On the revealing interview of Ajit Pawar with Sreenivasan Jain, Manisha says, “It has always been implied that Adani was present at these meetings and that he plays an important part in Maharashtra politics. Ajit Pawar also very casually says this.” She then asks, “Could he have said all this without thinking of repercussions?” Raman says, “Adani is a dirty word in politics. Congress also keeps talking about Adani. They always weaponise it to tarnish the image of the BJP. I think he [Ajit] just wanted to have a dig at his uncle [Sharad Pawar] who at this point of time is supporting Congress.”This and a lot more.
