4 PRINCIPLES OF LEAN UX
CROSS-FUNCTIONAL TEAM
Trifecta = Product + UX + Eng.
MEASURE PROGRESS BY OUTCOMES, NOT OUTPUTS
Progress is how much closer you are to the business goals,
not what you have delivered.
EXTERNALIZING (YOU’RE NOT AN ISLAND)
Share early and often!
VALIDATE HYPOTHESIS
Are we making the right thing? Is there product/market fit?
