Bryan Starbuck provides a presentation on research shaping startups. He outlines a 4 step process for validating startup ideas: 1) develop a list of ideas, 2) build a pitch deck for the top idea, 3) validate the idea with target customers, and 4) if it passes validation then build the startup, if it fails then repeat the process. Starbuck emphasizes the importance of validating business models and ideas by talking to potential customers and getting feedback on pitch decks to identify weaknesses or blind spots before fully developing a startup.

LEAN SIX SIGMA CANVAS: A Universal Problem Solving (UPS) Worksheet for Lean S...Rod King, Ph.D.
The Lean Six Sigma methodology is one of the most effective tools for solving problems that improve customer delight as well as significantly add to the bottom line. However, Lean Six Sigma is not easy to learn and apply. Moreover, Lean Six Sigma programs are expensive. In this presentation, the Lean Six Sigma Canvas is introduced as an interface that facilitates the application of the Lean Six Sigma methodology, which is driven by the DMAIC (Define-Measure-Analyze-Improve-Control) Cycle. The Lean Six Sigma Canvas also facilitates integration of the Lean Six Sigma approach, which focuses on continuous quality improvement and waste reduction, with the Lean Startup method which focuses on continuous product innovation. The result is an all-in-one tool that can be used for cost effectively solving both tame (predictable) and wicked (unpredictable) problems.
LEAN STARTUP LIFECYCLE: 5 Stages in the Evolution of Billion Dollar $tartupsRod King, Ph.D.
This presentation builds on Steve Blank's three stage model for the evolution of scalable startups. Steve Blank's three stages are Startup, Transition, and Company. The above "Lean Startup Lifecycle" includes these three stages as well as illustrates other ideas such as Problem-Solution Fit, Product-Market Fit, and Business Model Fit/Scaling. Unlike in Steve Blank's approach, the Lean Startup Lifecycle presents the OTHER Loop as tool for solving novel (emergent) and routine (deliberate) problems when building a scalable startup.
The Lean Startup Lifecycle can be used as a descriptive tool to comprehensively explain the evolution of scalable startups as well as a prescriptive tool or roadmap for guiding the development of scalable startups or Billion Dollar Companies. The Lean Startup Lifecycle posits that every Billion Dollar $tartup goes through forms in its lifecycle: Adaptive Startup; Shaping Startup; Transition; Visionary Company; Classic Company.
This is my attempt to summarize some of the latest ideas / strategies / techniques related to lean product startups. Most of the content is based on my understanding from literature and applying these principles to my own startup
3-Act Business Model Storyboard for LEAN STARTUP PIVOTS: A Visual Template fo...Rod King, Ph.D.
If there were to be a single word that describes the Lean Startup methodology, I’d vote for “Pivot.” However, “Pivot” is one of the most abused terms in the lexicon of a Lean Startup.
In his book, “The Lean Startup,” Eric Ries notes: “A pivot is a special kind of change designed to test a new fundamental hypothesis about the product, business model, and engine of growth.” He then lists 10 types of pivots that can occur in a startup. He suggests that startups should have regular “Pivot or Persevere” meetings. The typology of pivots is strongly tied to the building blocks and profit logic of a business model. However, Ries does not illustrate the typology of pivots especially within the framework and profit logic of a business model.
This presentation on the 3-Act Business Model Storyboard visually organizes the 10 types of pivots within the profit logic of a business model; see http://goo.gl/MorILv . Consequently, one can see how a pivot in one part of a business model affects other parts of the Lean Startup’s business model. The Business Model Storyboard also indicates why it’s difficult to make pivots or structural changes in established business models; I describe this phenomenon as “Pivot Inertia (PI).” Pivot Inertia is responsible for the demise of once established firms such as Blockbuster and Borders. Overcoming Pivot Inertia is critical for the success of both startups and established businesses. Google, PayPal, and Groupon all overcame Pivot Inertia and made a fortune.
Finally, there is a template of the Business Model Storyboard that facilitates application of the Lean Startup Method. In particular, the Business Model Storyboard facilitates the process of formulating, testing, and validating business model hypotheses of Lean Startups. Using the Business Model Storyboard should make easier the understanding, planning, and execution of pivots in both startups and established companies.

Business Model - system strategy flow chart with feedback loops for lean startupKelly Schwedland
Startups are inherently difficult. Building a lean startup often involves having an idea of the business model and system strategy that can help while building the customer and process flow and allow for feedback loops to marketing and management that allows the company to flourish.
But Scaling a business requires that it is replicable. This requires systems that are not dependent on the founding team and can quickly and easily be transferred to new employees. Mapping out and documenting the systems is a quick and easy way to find holes and fill them. For More info see Michael Gerber's "The E-Myth Revisited"
A 3-day intense entrepreneurship training workshops based on different approaches; Business Model Canvas + Lean Startups, that aims at generating a sustainable business model for new startups.
LEANER STARTUP MODELING: A Value Innovation Storydeck of Standardized Tools f...Rod King, Ph.D.
In 2011, Eric Ries published his groundbreaking book, "The Lean Startup: How Today's Entrepreneurs Use Continuous Innovation to Create Radically Successful Businesses." In his review of the book, Steve Blank commented: "The roadmap for innovation for the twenty-first century. The Ideas in 'The Lean Startup' will help create the next industrial revolution." Tim O'Reilly added: "I imagine the Lean Startup principles applied to government programs, to health care, and to solving the world's greatest problems." In spite of the high acclaim for Ries's "The Lean Startup," entrepreneurs and organizations struggle to translate into reality key ideas and principles of the Lean Startup Method. Many entrepreneurs don't know where to begin and the tools that must be applied to achieve the goal of continuous innovation while creating radically successful businesses. In short, Ries's book lacks tools for simply translating its ideas into reality. Several tools have emerged to help translate Lean Startup ideas into practice. Popular tools include the Business Model Canvas, Lean Canvas, and Validation Board. However, none of these tools can be used to holistically present or illustrate the Lean Startup Methodology as presented in the book, "The Lean Startup." Tools such as the Business Model Canvas, Lean Canvas, and Validation Board cannot be simultaneously applied at the level of business strategy, business modeling, and execution in a Lean Startup project. In short, single level and static tools such as the Business Model Canvas, Lean Canvas, and Validation Board do not adequately reflect and feature the rich contents of the Lean Startup book. It is this void that the Lean Startup Model fills. The Leaner Startup Model provides the only template for systematically translating Eric Ries's Lean Startup ideas, principles, and method into reality. The Lean Startup Model provides the only dynamic business model framework that explicitly integrates the Product Innovation (Agile Development) Model, Customer Development (Marketing) Model, and Innovation Accounting (Financial Profit) Model of the Lean Startup Method. The dynamic framework of the Leaner Startup Model facilitates deep understanding and exploration of Lean Startup ideas including the following: Lean Strategy (Vision-Strategy-Product) Pyramid; Build-Measure-Learn Feedback Loop; Minimum Viable Product; Pivot; Product-Market Fit; Value Hypothesis; Growth Hypothesis; Engines of Growth. The goal of the Leaner Startup Model is to provide an all-in-one template that helps more entrepreneurs and organizations to use continuous innovation to create "Radically Successful Businesses (RSB)." Use of an all-in-one template as well as a 'de facto' standard template facilitates communication between different Leaner Startup Practitioners as well as tremendously saves time, money, and energy in Leaner Startup projects. So, what do you think about having a standard template for the Lean Startup Method?
Business Model Canvas vs Lean Canvas vs One-Page Lean StartupRod King, Ph.D.
The Business Plan is the traditional document that established businesses and non-profit organizations as well as startups, entrepreneurs, and innovators use to document their strategy and tactics for achieving goals in projects. However, the traditional business plan is voluminous, complex, filled with grand hypotheses (vision), and becomes increasingly irrelevant as a project proceeds in the real world.
In recent years, many individuals and organizations have been abandoning the traditional business/strategic plan in favor of one-page documents that present project plans, business models, and ecosystems. The most common one-page project summaries are currently the tools of the Business Model Canvas, Lean Canvas, and One-Page Lean Startup. This presentation briefly introduces and compares these three business model (ecosystem) mapping tools especially using the workflow of 8 activities for Lean Startup Project Management.
Which business model (ecosystem) mapping tool is your favorite? And why?
What other tools are you using for summarizing, presenting, and managing your project plans as well as business models and ecosystems?
We look forward to hearing from you.
Best regards.

The Secret to Actually Producing Great Visual StorytellingLeslie Bradshaw
It's 2014 and there is no question that visual storytelling is an important tool in every marketer's tool belt. However, how to swiftly produce consistent, cost-effective and beautiful work is a lot less obvious. To arm you with the methods, resources and workflows you need to win at visual storytelling, we've asked marketer and data visualization pioneer Leslie Bradshaw to share her playbook. In her own words the session will deliver: Less hype. More do.

UX Comics: Communicating Experiences and Sharing Ideas (Bonny Colville-Hyde)UXPA International
When was the last time a document of yours was shared virally within a client organisation? Pinned to walls? Or even just read by all the client stakeholders?
Comics are a powerful communication tool that can have a role in boardrooms as well as playrooms. Words and pictures shown in sequence are easier and faster to understand compared to traditional documents. They can be used throughout projects to engage audiences and stakeholders. And people love reading them.
This session will explore why people like comics and how they can be used effectively within user experience tasks. We will focus on how journeys, events and scenarios can be shared using more than just words. We will look at how comics use non-verbal communication that helps readers to empathise with stories.
I will share examples of how comics have been used as a fast and easy way to explore ideas, share information and increase empathy with audiences and teams. You’ll get to see real comics I have made for clients, as well as ones by other comic makers.
I'll also give you a crash course in how to get started making your own comics. This includes basic drawing skills (suitable for the terrified as well as the confident artist!).

Enterprise Excellence is Inclusive Excellence.pdfKaiNexus
Enterprise excellence and inclusive excellence are closely linked, and real-world challenges have shown that both are essential to the success of any organization. To achieve enterprise excellence, organizations must focus on improving their operations and processes while creating an inclusive environment that engages everyone. In this interactive session, the facilitator will highlight commonly established business practices and how they limit our ability to engage everyone every day. More importantly, though, participants will likely gain increased awareness of what we can do differently to maximize enterprise excellence through deliberate inclusion.
What is Enterprise Excellence?
Enterprise Excellence is a holistic approach that's aimed at achieving world-class performance across all aspects of the organization.
What might I learn?
A way to engage all in creating Inclusive Excellence. Lessons from the US military and their parallels to the story of Harry Potter. How belt systems and CI teams can destroy inclusive practices. How leadership language invites people to the party. There are three things leaders can do to engage everyone every day: maximizing psychological safety to create environments where folks learn, contribute, and challenge the status quo.
Who might benefit? Anyone and everyone leading folks from the shop floor to top floor.
