Eric Ries on Lean Startup methodology, via Wikipedia. I strongly recommend a dramatic departure from this model, called “planned iteration” or Lean Startup methodology, where you assume you won’t get it right the first time, so you launch with a minimum viable product (MVP). Find customers, partners and channels early.

You think startups are hard? The idea of exploitation versus exploration was central in my own work in building the lean methodology for start-ups. Today, lean is the de facto method for building new start-ups. In the 20th century, finding the successful formula for repeatable start-up success remained a black art.

By the end of the 20th century entrepreneurship education fell into two categories: 1) starting small businesses and 2) starting high-growth, high-risk scalable startups. The case method and business plans are the antithesis of how entrepreneurs create startups. Neither cases nor business plans replicate the actual startup experience.
