Introduction to Lean Innovation
Making the world a better place is a messy prospect. However, innovators, whether directing groundbreaking research, designing new products, empowering communities or building new startup businesses, all must take similar first steps to be successful: knowing who one is helping, how and why help is needed and how a proposed solution might benefit its intended recipients. This is a challenging, but critical, first step to take.
