Setting Expectation

Detail Orientation

At Leap, we are suckers for detail. That’s why this case study comes with no time limit.
You can turn it in whenever you feel you can have a meaningful and confident discussion
with Leap’s leadership team. We expect you to come in with a plan that you are excited
about. And we expect you to make a case for your plan, when challenged.
Be Decisive

When you join Leap, you will be expected to take business decisions on your own.
You will have sounding boards and a smart peer group, but we will expect you to take the
final decision. ​
In the same spirit, we expect you to come in with a decisive hypothesis on this
project. ​
Do your research - primary research and secondary research to make sure you have a strong
hypothesis.​
Because we are doing something fundamentally new, we won’t know the right
hypothesis from the wrong one till we experiment and execute. It is, nevertheless, important
for PMs to start with a strong hypothesis that they believe in -before testing it in the real
World.

Thinking Big

This is a high impact moonshot project for Leap. Hence, we encourage you to think big,
without constraints. You have a reasonable budget for the MVP. Don’t worry about
resources but do think about how we can be really fast in execution

Format of submission
