The Lean Startup, Paperback Book, By: Eric Ries

How The Book is Organized VISION: Vision makes the case for a new discipline of entrepreneurial management. Identify who is an entrepreneur, define a startup, and articulate a new way for startups to gauge if they are making progress, called validated learning. To achieve that learning, we'll see that startups - in a garage or inside an enterprise - can use scientific experimentation to discover how to build a sustainable business. STEER: Steer dives into the Lean Startup method in detail, showing one major turn through the core Build- Measure- Learn feedback loop. Beginning with leap-of-faith assumptions that cry out for vigorous testing, you'll learn how to build a minimum viable product to test those assumptions, a new accounting system for evaluating whether you're making progress, and a method for deciding whether to pivot (changing course with one foot anchored to the ground) or persevere. ACCELERATE: In Accelerate, we'll explore techniques that enable Lean Startups to speed through the Build- Measure- Learn feedback loop as quickly as possible, even as they scale. We'll explore lean manufacturing concepts that are applicable to startups, too, such as the power of small batches. We'll also discuss organizational design, how products grow, and how to apply Lean Startup principles beyond the proverbial garage, even inside the world's largest companies.
