Main takeaways:
-Become empowered to run lean experiments and learn quicker and with minimal effort
-Learn about the essential tools to prototype without needing to code
-Make better product decisions by validating your hypotheses early on with MVPs

10. Use the Lean Startup approach to your advantage
💪 Eliminating uncertainty
⚡ Learning as quickly as possible
♻ Not wasting resources
🔎 Evidence-driven product development
11. The concept of an MVP
Source: Tinytracker
A Minimum Viable Product (MVP) is that version of a new product which allows
a team to collect the maximum amount of validated learning about customers
with the least effort.
12. Elevate your product game through lean
experimentation
❌ Long time to MVP
❌ Few customer insights
❌ Lack of quick win experiments
❌ Low number of wins
✅ Short time to MVP
✅ Rich with customer insights
✅ Highly iterative
✅ Higher number of wins

14. “Our goal in discovery is to validate our ideas the
fastest, cheapest way possible. Discovery is about the
need for speed. This lets us try out many ideas, and for
the promising ideas, try out multiple approaches.
There are many different types of ideas, many
different types of products, and a variety of different
risks that we need to address (value risk, usability
risk, feasibility risk, and business risk). So, we have a
wide range of techniques, each suitable to different
situations. “
