What does this book cover?

The path to success as a startup lies not in creating complex business plans. Over-defining your operation in advance is more likely to lead to disaster. The Lean Startup shows organisations of all types and sizes how to keep their vision relevant as the organisation evolves.

This book is eminently practical, and has immediately applicable wisdom for everyone form Fortune 500 companies to literal garage startups. It will tach you to:

• Use limited capital more efficiently
• Make the most of your only irreplaceable asset – human creativity
• Experiment, test and conduct ‘validated learning’ exercises
• Measure your progress accurately
• Give your customers and partner organisations what they really want and need
• At the same time, it will give you a number of tips and tricks that seem very counter-intuitive at first glance but dramatically shorten the product development process.

About the Author

Drucker has an amazing insight, not just into executives who can ‘get things done’ effectively, but also into what sets them apart from others or makes them similar to each other. He finds that whilst intelligence, knowledge and imagination are vital, they are not enough.

This book shows you the habits and practices an executive needs to be really successful.
