Notes
The Lean Product Playbook
by Dan Olsen
This books is about how to effectively design successful products using Lean concepts. It revolves around software but the ideas are easily transferable to other industries.
I hear about it during a Design Sprint Workshops course I took on 2019. I was automatically drawn by the Product-Market-Fit framework that Dan used to explain how -and why- to optimize product design within startup environments. I thought "Wow, that must be very useful". Spoiler alert: It definitely was.
That pyramid was brilliant and I refer to it in every project. The book is also a step-by-step guide of the entire process Dan put together for optimal Lean design and explains in detail what to do in each step -and why it works. And the final chapter about measuring key metrics is pure GOLD. Worth every page.
Wanna get this book? Go ahead. I recommend it :)
