This is my favorite slide:

How often are we just asking the wrong questions.

      I’ve been trying to fit my head around what it means to be “lean” and I think that this slide pretty much synthesized what I view it as. The idea isn’t to just throw junk out there, but to start as small as possible so that you can get feedback back and make decisions.

      I found the entire presentation to be great. Is there going to be a video of it?
