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.

Eric Ries defines a startup as an organization dedicated to creating something new under conditions of extreme uncertainty. This is just as true for one person in a garage or a group of seasoned professionals in a Fortune 500 boardroom. What they have in common is a mission to penetrate that fog of uncertainty to discover a successful path to a sustainable business.

The Lean Startup approach fosters companies that are both more capital efficient and that leverage human creativity more effectively. Inspired by lessons from lean manufacturing, it relies on “validated learning”, rapid scientific experimentation, as well as a number of counter-intuitive practices that shorten product-development cycles, measure actual progress without resorting to vanity metrics, and learn what customers really want. It enables a company to shift directions with agility, altering plans inch by inch, minute by minute.

Rather than wasting time creating elaborate business plans, The Lean Startup offers entrepreneurs - in companies of all sizes - a way to test their vision continuously, to adapt and adjust before it’s too late. Ries provides a scientific approach to creating and managing successful startups in a age when companies need to innovate more than ever.

From start to finish this book is packed with incredible material that will give you a fresh new perspective when it comes to evaluating a start up and how to approach its inception and later manage its growth while helping to overcome obstacles and pitfalls. I can't recommend it enough!

I love the simplicity of the model and the way it integrates lean. Would recommend to any continuous improvement practitioner, and especially those involved with launching new ideas within a company as well as the traditional start up.

Plenty for People who want to disrupt a current industry or you starting a small business. Think it could have been broken in to two books though

Good but very wordy..

Great book, but personally I found the language very wordy and less than optimally structured in places. I think the book could be made more concise and to the point.
