Lean product discovery: Build the right sh*t - ProductCamp Austin - PCA19Daniel Katz
How do you know what you should be building? Are your customers requests actually what they need? Do they know what they want? … and more importantly, what’s the real cost of getting it wrong? Lean Product Discovery is an easy way to help answer these questions and validate (or define) what you’re about to build. Reconsider your ever growing backlog of epics and stories into a validated list of customer value. Transform your team from being a “feature factory” to becoming a squad of strategic feature ninjas. In this session we will overview Lean Product Discovery, go over strategies, tactics and tips to establish an environment of testing and validation. Although I’m categorizing this under “Product Strategy,” this topic crosses into half of the categories offered. Nobody puts Lean Product Discovery in a corner.
