The Three Modes of Collaboration–and What They Mean for Distributed TeamsLean Startup Co.
Teryn Rikert STEELCASE
People on distributed teams often say, “Working remotely is great for heads-down tasks, but collaborating remotely–especially on creative work–is really hard.” You’ve probably said that yourself. So how can we improve distributed collaboration in virtual meetings? Teryn Rikert, a workplace strategist with Steelcase, will break down the different modes of collaboration, helping us understand the key behaviors, interactions and tools we can use to support them over distance.

When Failure Is a Success by Ursula Shekufendeh - The Lean Startup Conference...Lean Startup Co.
It's one thing to decide that you'll rigorously test product ideas, and it's entirely another matter to actually kill something that isn't clearly a dud. AppFolio faced this dilemma when deciding whether to launch a new product last year. Product Manager Ursula Shekefundeh takes us through the surprising--and hard--decisions her team made at the persevere/pivot/kill crossroads.

Joe Moore @joem PIVOTAL LABS
Pair programming is a key approach to simultaneously increasing focus, improving code, boosting morale and generating team cohesion, among other benefits. But, like most methods of close collaboration, it’s predicated on the idea that two people are sitting right next to each other. Joe Moore of Pivotal Labs–a leader in pair programming–will look at how the human interaction elements of the process can be used to effectively integrate remote team members into HQ or co-located teams, and can thus be applied to many kinds of intense, virtual collaboration.
The 100 Day Challenge - Learnings from a Rapid Hardware EntrepreneurLean Startup Co.
Elin Elkehag, Instalert Inc., @elkehag
Got an idea? Would you invest 2 hours in that idea to guarantee your next step towards success? Can a 50-cent prototype be the key to moving your project forward with confidence? Is it worth $50 bucks to see if you product has legs? Elin Elkehag tells the story of what she learned during her 100-day lean startup challenge.
Amir Shevat, Slack, @ashevat
As product managers and founders we know failing can be a good learning experience – and that is true, unless you fail because of something common or stupid that could have been avoided by simple methodologies. Many times we simply make irrational product decisions that prevent us from actually running valuable experiments. Avoiding common mistakes and taking better product decisions, by using easy hacks, could make or break your product and startup. In this session we will go over a few common product failures, as well as demonstrate simple methods and tricks to avoid these failures.
Ariana Friedlander, Rosabella Consulting, LLC , @arianaf
Do you struggle connecting with your customers? Having a hard time getting valuable insights from your customers? Tired of running experiments that don’t give accurate pass/fail indicators? In this hands-on interactive session, Ariana will help you move past those limitations by sharing her unique co-creational approach. At the end, you will walk away with a well crafted line of inquiry so that you may conduct more effective experiments while building your community of supporters.
Tomer Sharon, WeWork, @tsharon
Uncovering true user needs is one of the most challenging aspects of product development. Oh-so-many organizations develop products and services that nobody needs. The Experience Sampling Method is a simple research technique for uncovering user needs. In a typical Experience Sampling study, research participants are interrupted several times a day to note their experience in real time. In this talk, Tomer Sharon will demonstrate the method with conference attendees, show how it can help shape product roadmap priorities, describe how it serves as Google Search’s secret weapon, and demonstrate live, onstage data analysis.
Reinvent Decision Making at Established Institutions by Allison Dulin-Salisbu...Lean Startup Co.
Higher education has legendarily long decision-making cycles, which create a real tension for teachers and administrators who want to test curriculum ideas in new digital markets. Allison Dulin, Special Projects for the President at Davidson College, explains how the 177-year-old college has shifted its decision-making processes and used experimentation to face down the uncertainty that's rocking education markets.
Integrate Customer Feedback Into Your Product by Greg Nelson - The Lean Start...Lean Startup Co.
Your team is committed to customer development and conducting user research, but how do you integrate the information you collect into your product development? Hudl Product Manager Greg Nelson explains how his company ensures that the entire, cross-functional product team understands and can act on customers' needs.
Vincent Thamm, Transavia , @Vincent_Thamm
This presentation looks at the learnings and challenges faced when Transavia started using Lean Startup to accelerate customer experience innovation, how we engaged the Transavia Management Team, how we scaled Lean Startup for other business ideas, how we combined different methods of work into a continuous innovation process and how we apply Lean Startup in an Open innovation context.
Build a Culture that Outsmarts Perfectionism by Seppo Helava - The Lean Start...Lean Startup Co.
The build-measure-learn loop is often accompanied by the frustration-confusion-failure cycle. In other words, implementing Lean Startup methods is hard--particularly when your experiments invalidate a lot of your ideas. In this talk, Seppo Helava, founder at Nonsense Industry, teaches us how he's led his team to overcome perfectionism and become more comfortable with grey areas and failure.

• Crowdfunding is like swiss cheese
• It smells good and has holes in it
• MVP sometimes stands for most
valuable player
• Crowdtesting is different than
crowdfunding
• See they have different letters in them
