Clearly worth the listening this book.

To me everything else in the book was encapsulated inside of getting an MVP out there and commencing the iteration process. Reading this book and then Moore's "Crossing The Chasm" immediately after has greatly deepened my marketing insights.I also think that having basic business management and marketing theory prior to reading these books will increase the value of these books.

The ideas I find most useful are pivots.

The ideas I find most useful are pivots, and quick-feedback learning through minimally viable products, which work in some environments and would be very hard to make work in other situations, nevertheless there are kernels of extremely powerful ideas here. The ideas of a learning organization and the five whys are genuinely helpful twists on old ideas which Jennifer appropriately credits.

Book's lessons are as applicable to established.

Although the true worth of a book on finance or entrepreneurship is if the reader actually uses the information for their own gain, this is the first book on business and entrepreneurship that made sense to me. It has many specific ideas but it all comes down to using the scientific method every step of the way in a start up. This explains why the endless fears of "most businesses fail" and "entrepreneurship is too risky" exist. Most people, even big businesses function under false assumptions.

Not just for entrepreneurs!

Awesome book not only for startups, but applications for any company. I use these thought processes even though I work for a Fortune 500 consumer goods company. The startup mentality isn't only for entrepreneurs, but just the entrepreneurial minded. I don't have any worthwhile ideas to start a company, but i like to think I have that entrepreneurial spirit!

Not news if you are running a successful business.

If you are a small business owner then none of what this book covers comes as any great surprise. In essence keep costs down, continue to innovate and succeed through small increments. Such ideas are clearly novel to many larger businesses these days who have lost the reason for their existence. That is, to serve the customer.

Loved it, but I wish it covered extra.

This book goes over how a startup or development group in a larger org can do experiments to see what customer's perceive as adding value. I love the philosophical start about how in the past people knew we needed to produce more, but the modern industrialized world has more than enough products and services, so the trick is to work out what people want.

Fresh ideas on entrepreneurship.

This book was one of the key strategies we are going to use. This book doesn't dive deep into getting the right hypothesis; for that I recommend "Tuned In" (another book). It's complementary to this (my view).

Very helpful and easy to follow.

Lean startup outlines how to execute a hypothesis... with the scientific method. If you're willing to have the discipline to use these principles, it works. There's a lot of pitfalls (vanity metrics) but if you follow the book & use it as a reference it works. I used this at a startup where the company grew revenue almost 100x during my time there.

Summarization is crucial to everyone.

The correlation between lean manufacturing and a startup is surprisingly fitting. Author does a great job explaining the lean concept and relating it to startup phase/topic.Also does a great job explaining that startups aren’t only new companies, but subsets of larger organizations too.

A wonderful book with a great philosophy.

Whether you're a product developer for a company or an executive at a high-tech startup, this book benefits many positions from all perspectives in just about any industry. The nature of the Lean Startup itself is something that can be applied to nearly all facades in life. I read The Lean Startup a few times a year just because it always amazes me on how much I continue to learn from its philosophy.
