Agile Is A Way Of Working
Based On Core Values & Principles.

Practices are developed from those core values and principles, .

Most people know Agile from specific practices like daily stand up, story points, user stories, etc., but the foundation of Agile is its fundamental values and principles.

Because of this, Agile is very extendable; meaning new flavors of Agile can be developed as well as new practices.

One of those new flavors of Agile is the Lean Start-up. Lean Start-Up or LSU, is a flavor of Agile dealing with Product Development and Launch.

It can tie in marketing and sales but at its core, it is a way of enabling your organization to test early and often and from there use what you learned to successful scale new products with much less long term risk.

Even though “Start-up” is in the name of this flavor of Agile, it isn’t just for small organizations or entrepreneur based organizations.

One of the big trend for large enterprise organizations is the concept of Intrepreneurership; basically incubating new products using entrepreneur tactics while working in a larger organization.

The same can be done with Lean Start-up.

In this presentation David will look at what Lean Start-Up is and techniques used to successfully take advantage of its practices and activities.

From that point, we will look at some practical real-world examples of how Lean Start-up can be executed within any organization type.

The goal is to provide both the theory of Lean Start-up with real-world details of how the theory can be executed to significantly reduce the risks involved in new product development and let the market help you make decisions over trying to plan where you think the market will end up.

Ask an IT organization to review its application project success track record over the past 10 to 15 years and chances are that they will express general satisfaction — most application projects are deemed to be successful.

Ask the current business managers what they think of the current portfolio of applications and they will express dissatisfaction — most applications are unpopular.

Discussion Topics:

• The root cause of this dichotomy and how can it be eliminated
• The difference between a successful project and a successful application
• How future application projects can ensure delivery of successful applications
