I help people test ideas.
I'm the co-author of Testing Business Ideas with Alex Osterwalder. I pioneered GE FastWorks with Eric Ries, coached emerging product teams at Adobe and even helped Toyota apply lean startup practices.
Before my transition into coaching, I spent over 10 years of my career at early stage technology startups.
I stay connected to the startup scene through my work with Silicon Valley venture capitalists and startup accelerators.
And most importantly, I created this course to help you quickly test your ideas, because I wasted years of my life building things nobody wanted.
01
How can you tell a good idea from a bad idea? They both look the same early on. Testing your idea is the hard part. Learn how to identify and extract risk by using design thinking principles.
02
Focusing can be difficult. Learn to cut through the noise and focus on your efforts through Assumptions Mapping.
03
Testing your ideas can feel intimidating. Take the anxiety out of it and learn how to leverage the library of 44 different experiments to validate your riskiest assumptions.
04
While you can keep all of this inside your head for a time, it'll be difficult to do it repeatedly or explain it to your team. Learn how to plug these concepts together to test your ideas over and over again until you have a viable business.
