The Lean Product Playbook: How to Innovate with Minimum Viable Products and Rapid Customer Feedback

Very easy to read, sometimes a bit dry and often its covering what is now, at least, very well known approaches. However, that said it also contain some key differences to other comparable books. I *think* I understand the theory around lean, good UX approach very well but sometimes it's hard to find actual practical descriptions of doing them in different stages of your customer / product development. What I am finding is that product development techniques are very well documented but customer development is still, even now, quite hard to vaguely described to where you should start. For this alone it gets 5 stars.I don't think anything in this book will surprise you if you are vaguely in that startup / lean world (unless you think you are but aren't ;-) but it might just give you some pointers as to your blind spots and how to actually, practically carry them out. It did for me.The other major factor I like is that he is very honest in how he has carried out the research and it isn't overblown or unachievable for most (i.e. just re-hashing the methods that the latest unicorn did which doesn't really translate very often - Uber, which is occasionally mentioned, found a really untapped customer need with huge potential; this is quite rare as is obvious from its outstanding success). There is a lot of people out there that will tell you unless it's huge sample sizes and you are getting statistically significant evidence then it's not worth doing. This is impractical in many B2B cases where its high value but a niche product. He seems to agree and suggest a modest number of well done and structured tests can give you good (enough) insight. I liked this approach as it gets round the all or nothing and makes you apply some rigour to the middle pathway.

I’m looking to start a new tech start up and this was invaluable for tips and tricks on good PM approaches.

I am really enjoying reading this book. It is very easy to follow with concrete and useful​ examples.

A worthwhile read that had a good balance between innovative tips and tricks, with relevant and familiar case studies where they were applied.Two stars were deducted as it did feel a tad wordy in places with some elements repeated

This book had loads of useful information for entrepreneurs. It also helps give a framework around building great products...highly recommend for all entrepreneurs
