ABOUT DIEGO VON SOHSTEN

I\'m now mentoring PMs! Check out the links on my profile below.) I\'m a Software Engineer turned Product Leader with 14 years of experience in tech. I\'m passionate about Product Management, Growth strategies, product strategy, and PLG transformation. Currently at Vidyard, I\'m in charge of PLG initiatives, from onboarding to monetization. Last year, we increased self-service revenue by 49%, and we\'re just getting started! Previously at Vendasta, also as a Director of Product, I led their PLG transformation, from acquisition to retention. We saw record revenue numbers at the time, even during the peak of the COVID pandemic. I\'ve also launched a new foundational product (in the AdTech space) and doubled the MRR of our Listings suite YoY. Other relevant Product experiences include Thoughtworks, a large Microsoft Partner in South America (Allen) and my former startup (Teamworki). I also hold a Master\'s in Computer Engineering / Cloud Computing, besides project management and agile certifications.
