Introduction To The Lean Definition Process
The document outlines the Lean Definition Process presented by Cindy Solomon and Malcolm Knapp, aimed at product managers, developers, and designers. It highlights the challenges of poorly defined visions in product development, such as feature creep and design conflicts, and emphasizes the benefits of a structured approach to establish clear expectations and improve team synchronization. The time-efficient process is designed to provide a comprehensive view of product functionality and foster better collaboration among cross-functional teams.
