...Entrepreneurs recognize they are 
going to have to follow their own internal

as part of the journey.

What’s a startup? 
A startup is "rst of all an experiment, it 
is a human institution designed to 
deliver a new product or service under 
conditions of extreme uncertainty 
At its heart, a startup is a catalyst that 
transforms ideas into products. 
(From Lessons Learned blog by Eric Ries)

Innovation Accounting 
“To improve entrepreneurial outcomes, and to 
hold entrepreneurs accountable, we need to 
focus on the boring stuff: how to measure 
progress, how to setup milestones, how to 
prioritize work. 
This requires a new kind of accounting, 
specific to startups” 
(Eric Ries - The Lean Startup)

Innovation Accounting 
Concentrate on macro metrics 
Everything you do should attempt 
to change a metric 
Try to use as few tools as possible
