This document provides an overview of new models for purpose-driven innovation in knowledge work. It discusses challenges that industries face from disruptive innovation and the need for experimentation and customer focus. The document introduces concepts like Lean Startup, customer development processes, minimum viable products, Lean UX, design thinking, and emphasizes the importance of understanding customer needs through research. It provides guidance on running small, tight experiments to test assumptions and learn, rather than focusing on premature optimization or scaling.

- 13. 7 KEYS TO LEAN STARTUP 1. Uncover your customers’ pain points through research 2. Invalidate your assumptions 3. Formulate hypotheses 4. Collaborative ideation 5. Experiments, NOT solutions 6. Learning isn’t failure 7. Amplify what works
- 14. The problem with many projects is that you spend months or years doing research, writing requirements, designing and building products and services… and discover no customer cares.
- 15. Life is too short to build something nobody wants. “ - ASH MAURYA ”
- 16. IT STARTED WITH A QUESTION If startups fail from a lack of customers not product development failure… Then why do we have: • A process for product development? • No process for customer development?
- 18. TRADITIONAL PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT DEFINE DESIGN DEVELOPMENT DEPLOYMENT Very little learning Some learning Most learning happens here
- 19. “A Startup is a human institution designed to deliver a product or service under conditions of extreme uncertainty” – Eric Ries A startup is a human institution designed to deliver a product or service under conditions of extreme uncertainty. “ - ERIC RIES ”
- 22. Waste is any human activity which absorbs resources, but creates no value. - James P. Womack & Daniel T. Jones * Lean Startup ≠ Lean
- 23. If you can’t describe what you are doing as a process, you don’t know what you’re doing. “ - EDWARDS DEMING ”
- 24. LeanStartup*Cycle * Lean Startup ≠ Lean
- 26. THE CUSTOMER DEVELOPMENT PROCESS in other words…
- 28. THE EARLYVANGELIST 1. Has a problem 2. Is aware of having a problem 3. Has been actively looking for a solution 4. Has put together a solution out of piece parts 5. Has or can acquire a budget
- 29. HIGH OCCURRENCE LOW OCCURRENCE LOW PAIN HIGH PAIN High Frequency High Pain High Frequency low Pain Low Frequency High Pain Low Frequency low Pain

- 31. REMEMBER Your sole objective is to learn.
- 32. 1. Clearly articulate & test your assumptions about the customer 2. “Get out of the building” 3. Small cycles 4. Experiments 5. Iterate based on what you learned. 6. Don’t invest in anything that isn’t validated HOW TO DO IT: LEAN STARTUP META-RULES
- 34. Minimum Viable Product A MOST MISUNDERSTOOD TERM IN SOFTWARE MINIMAL VIABLE PRODUCT A Most Misunderstood Term in Software
- 35. WHAT IS AN MVP? The minimum amount of effort you have to do to complete exactly one turn of the Build-Measure-Learn feedback loop.
- 36. SPEED, FOCUS, LEARNING Speed FocusLearning CHASING YOUR TAIL PREMATURE OPTIMAZATION RUNNING OUT OF RESOURCES THE OPTIMAL LEARNING LOOP
- 37. Your team should maximize for: Focus Learnings While Minimizing: Cycle Time
- 39. 4 KINDS OF MVP EXPLORATION An interaction with the customer that focuses on investigation of his or her problems to understand past behavior and see if it is top of mind. PITCH An interaction with the customer that attempt to sell the product to a customer in exchange for some form of currency: time, money, or work. CONCIERGE Delivering the product as a service to the customer to see if the delivery matches the customer’s expectations. PROTOTYPE (OR FEATURE FAKE) A small, testable model whose sole purpose is to get feedback from a customer.
- 40. In order to reduce waste and speed up learning, you need to pare down your prototypes so that all you have left is the essence of your product: The MVP.
- 41. YOUR MVP SHOULD BE LIKE A GREAT REDUCTION SAUCE concentrated, intense, and flavorful
- 42. MVPs PRODUCTFIDELITY COVERAGE (NUMBER OF CUSTOMERS) Low many High Few (Size = effort and feedback cycle length) Interview Paper Sketch Paper Mockup Concierge MVP A/B Testing The Product Software Prototype Ad-Words Campaign Video
- 43. STEPS TO MVP • Start with a single customer • Start with the Number One Problem • Eliminate nice-to-haves & don’t-needs • Repeat Step 3 for your Number Two & Number 3 Problems • Consider other customer requests – prioritize them as well • Charge from day one (if you can) • Focus on learning, not optimization or scaling
- 45. Lean UX
- 46. LeanUXCycle
- 48. THE LEANUX KATA • Who is the customer? • What is their problem? • What do you know and how do you know it? • What are your assumptions? How will you test them? • What have you learned and what should you learn next? • What is your very next experiment? • How will you measure it?
- 49. WHAT IS UX DESIGN?
- 50. User experience is about how you design solutions and services that solve real human needs…
- 51. • Articulated context • Focus on people, not technology • Centered on customer’s needs, goals, desires • Clear hierarchy of information and tasks • Focus on simplicity; reduce visual complexity • Provide strong information scent • Use constraints appropriately • Make actions reversible • Provide meaningful feedback PRINCIPLES OF UX
- 52. • Products and services must serve people • Respect all ways in which value is delivered to customers • Use technology intelligently to serve the customer experience Notice that none of these principles are anchored in a specific medium or modality of interation. VARIANT
- 53. Design Thinking
- 54. Designers make explicit their sense-making and framing as they attempt to make meaning out of research through modeling.
- 55. A problem well stated is mostly solved. The problem is stating a problem well is really hard.

- 60. KNOWLEDGE FUNNEL
- 61. KNOWLEDGE FUNNEL
- 62. Our real goal, then, is not so much fulfilling manifest needs by creating a speedier printer or a more ergonomic keyboard; that’s the job of designers. It is helping people to articulate the latent needs they may not even know they have, and this is the challenge of design thinkers. - TIM BROWN “ ”
- 64. A frame is, simplistically, a point of view; often, and particularly in technical situations, this point of view is deemed “irrelevant” or “biasing” because it implicitly references a non-objective way of considering a situation or idea. But a frame – while certainly subjective and often biasing – is of critical use to the designer, as it is something that is shaped over the long-term aggregation of thoughts and experiences. - JON KOLKO “ ”
- 65. LEAN STARTUP BERRY-PICKING MODEL
- 66. Whenever we propose a solution to a problem, we ought to try as hard as we can to overthrow our solution, rather than defend it. - Karl Popper

- 70. DOUBLE DIAMOND Exploration We have problems What is the context? Who is impacted? Where is the value? Ideation I have an opportunity for design How do I make sense of the data? What are our options? What experiments could I run? Experimentation I have an innovative solution What is the smallest experiment I could run? How will we know things are getting better? How do I scale the solution?

Be careful of anchoring
- 80. GUIDELINES 80 • It’s about empathizing. • Listen, even when people go off topic. • Context is king – document it, and make sure the context of research maps to the problem being explored. • Start from the assumption that everything you know is wrong.
- 81. YOU NEED TO GATHER... 81 1. Factual information 2. Behavior 3. Pain 4. Goals You can document this on the persona board as well as …. photos, video, audio, journals…. document everything.

- 83. DO • Take notes • Smile • Ask open-ended questions • Get their story • Shut up and listen DON’T • Talk about your product • Ask about future behavior • Sell • Ask leading questions • Talk much SOME PROTIPS 83
- 85. 7 STEPS 1. Uncover people’s needs and goals 2. Formulate hypotheses 3. Question your assumptions 4. Collaborate to generate ideas 5. Run small, tight experiments 6. Learning isn’t failure 7. Amplify what works
- 86. My propositions serve as elucidations in the following way: anyone who understands me eventually recognizes them as nonsensical, when he has used them - as steps - to climb beyond them. He must, so to speak, throw away the ladder after he has climbed up it. “ – LUDWIG WITTGENSTEIN ”
