21. Define a Start-Up?

22. “A startup is a
temporary organisation
used to search for a
repeatable scaleable
business model”

23. “A startup is a human
institution designed to
create new products and
services under
conditions of extreme
uncertainty”
Eric Ries

24. Start-up = Experiment

25. Entrepreneurship is Management
Entrepreneurship is an institution, not just
a product, and so it requires a new kind
of management specifically geared to its
context of extreme uncertainty.

26. Validated Learning
“search for a
repeatable
scaleable
business
model”
Startups exist to learn how to build a
sustainable business. This learning can be
validated scientifically by running frequent
experiments that allow entrepreneurs to
test each element of their vision.

27. Build-Measure-Learn
The fundamental activity of a startup is to turn
ideas into products, measure how customers
respond, and then learn whether to pivot or
preserve. All successful startup processes should
be geared to accelerate that feedback loop.

28. Innovation Accounting
To improve entrepreneurial outcomes and
hold entrepreneurs accountable, how to
measure progress, how to set up
milestones & how to prioritize work.

29. Problem 1
1st problem is caused by
the allure of a good plan,
a solid strategy, and No business plan survives
thorough market
research. Startups first customer contact
operate with too much
uncertainty. Startups do
no know yet who their
customer is or what their
product should be.

30. Problem 2
2nd problem is that after seeing traditional
management fail to solve this problem, some
entrepreneurs and investors have thrown up
their hands and adopted the “just do it” school
of startups.

31. Solution = Lean Startup
