In this episode, Bett and Russ discuss the Lean Startup Methodology. Listen to learn how Reality Distortion Fields and Steve Jobs relate.
This episode is essentially a review of the book:
The Lean Startup: How Today's Entrepreneurs Use Continuous Innovation to Create Radically Successful Businesses A quote from the book: "Most startups fail. But many of those failures are preventable. The Lean Startup is a new approach being adopted across the globe, changing the way companies are built and new products are launched."
Even if you aren't planning to start a company and are instead part of a well established company, you will want to learn and apply many of the lean startup principles--they can help in any size company where the goal is to be more efficient and rapidly deliver innovative products or services that match customer needs and desires.
