- acgourley 15y agoI'm usually in the camp of "those who can, do; those who can't, read business books" but this book is worth stopping everything you're doing and fully internalizing. I think the lean movement (directly and indirectly) will increase value creation in silicon valley by 10-20%, and this is the holy book of it.
- jaxn 15y agoPretty sure the impact isn't just limited to silicon valley. If anything, I think the relative impact of other areas will be far greater elsewhere.
- tosh 15y agoIt is easy to read and full of things that sound very obvious in hindsight (but often the 'obvious' things are those things that are important). I love that he emphasizes the right things like vision plus a scientific approach (hypothesis and innovation accounting). It goes beyond agile & lean software development best practices and adds customer oriented business concepts on top so you get a great framework for product development. If your aim is to deliver great software products and satisfy your customer then the approach he describes is the best way I can think of to achieve your goal. disclaimer: I am currently building a product influenced by the lean startup movement: http://www.blossom.io http://www.blossom.io
