4/5

“I think this kind of philosophy of adopting the ‘lean startup’ or ‘lean product development’ methodology, and then applying that to process in this bite-sized, iterative improvement way while gathering data & using processes in real-time, getting real feedback is a big shift that we’ve seen, and it’s something that we recommend a lot of our customers do.

We call it ‘lean process management’.”
