the “Lean” movement
• … just a few key names:• Eric Ries • Steve Blank • Dave McClure and other cool cats
• …BUT… Is this really that new?• Isn’t this what smart entrepreneurs ALREADY
do? How smart entrepreneurs ALREADY think?

A few quick thoughts…• “Lean” doesn’t mean cheap.. It means FAST• “Lean” could just as easily be called “Learn”!
WHEN to be Lean?• Extreme uncertainty• Significant ambiguity (Type III errors)• Startups – scalable startups• Social / Sustainable / BOTP• New Product Development / Tech Transfer

What is a “Startup”..really?
• A startup is simply the vehicle for figuring out a sustainable, repeatable, scalable business model
• This is no time for a business plan… takes very different planning (and thinking)
• Finding your Scalable Business Model:– Test each critical assumption in your model– Measure (qual & quant) ruthlessly– “Pivot” quickly– Iterate

• “Failing fast” is also a misnomer – “fail FORWARD” which means…
• Better your assumptions fail… than your biz
• Forces attention on Value (benefits>>features)
• Build Test/Measure Learn (L,R,R)

What’s a Business Model?
• Three key questions to answer – identify all key assumptions for each:
–1) Value Proposition
–2) Value Delivery
–3) Value Capture

The Process
• from Steve Blank: The search (SBM) we can call “Customer Development”
• Implementing SBM = “Agile Development”

Build Measure Learn
• BUILD: Identify & Test• Minimum Feature Set• Minimum Viable Product (MVP)
• MEASURE: • Find out what customers love… and especially hate
(Kathy Sierra vs Dave McClure)
• LISTEN! (to your metrics & your customers)• LEARN:
• Pivot quickly & decisively

Implications for us?
• “Lean” epitomizes entrepreneurial mindset [VERY different, BT: Assume & embrace uncertainty & ambiguity!]
• Applies to any high-uncertainty/ambiguity situation– Social ventures, tech transfer, NPD
• Mindset focuses on:– Benefits, not features… (not ‘inventors syndrome’)
– Value proposition & value delivery co-evolve– Customer, et al. as true partner
• Iterative, Co-Evolving Process– Not exactly a stage-gate (eg, early Goldsmith)– WAIT! (expert mentoring)

More implications…
• New insights into expert entrepreneurial mindset – needed by mentors, ecosytem– Experiential = Essential (>>hands-on)
• Incubating Immersion– Startup Weekend– Nebula Shift model
• Counseling Mentoring– TechStars, Accelerators
• Celebrate & Educate! (TechBoise, ESTech, ITC)
