Guiding Principles
1. Focus on Value
2. Minimize Effort
3. Deliver Fast
![Page 9: Lean Teams - Doing More with Less](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022052907/558e811a1a28ab9a0b8b4769/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
1. Focus on Value
“First, learn what is core to what you are building then provide just
that”
![Page 10: Lean Teams - Doing More with Less](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022052907/558e811a1a28ab9a0b8b4769/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Add Nothing but Value
what is value? understand it
should be owned by everyone
![Page 11: Lean Teams - Doing More with Less](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022052907/558e811a1a28ab9a0b8b4769/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
• creating useful software that people value
• learning what reaches users
• process for validating change
• doing so with as little effort

Pivot
• tweak features to get better results
• if pivoting doesn’t work, remove
