What is Lean Product Development and when to use it
One of the principles of Lean Product Development is to practice a customer-centric approach. This ensures that what you develop is worthwhile, without wasting resources or time. We must do research to know the needs of the client. Study their opinion and how they interact with the brand.
Lean Product Development reuses existing software, tools and products, reducing development time and providing a foundation on which to progress. Although you should keep in mind that being flexible is important to be able to adjust to what the client demands.
Lean Product Development means following an optimized process to reduce risk, reduce bottlenecks and establish correct workflows.
It is key to have the whole team aligned, standardizing processes and favoring collaboration. It is also interesting for team members to share past experiences that serve to recognize things to change. The team must be informed about the project and its development at all times. For this it is good to schedule meetings.
When you’re ready for a launch, opt for the phased launch. Break down a launch into small steps that make it easier to make changes. Tools like Slack enable interaction and promote transparency, allowing the whole team to know the changes and objectives.
Another important part has to do with assigning tasks. Theseassignments shouldbe even-handed, not overburdening any team member. If you really know your team, you will know their strengths and can assign them tasks optimally.
