Use the Startup Mindset to grow your business
THE STARTUP MINDSET
By Startup Mindset we don't mean 'move to agile' or 'fail fast'
These are the five Startup Mindset principles that drive our work.
Obsess over your customers
Know your customers and their pain points, deeply. Always keep close to them to anticipate shifts in demand & the market.
Embrace the squiggly line
Be open to adapt and flex to situations as things change. Focus on the end goal not on a set pathway.
Use data to your advantage
Don’t boil the ocean: identify your signals from the noise, and make smart, pragmatic decisions that will get you on a path to action, quickly.
Don’t compromise on people
A team with right mindset and skills are key to achieving your goals. Invest to build the team, and move decisively when things aren’t working.
Have a bias for action
Be proactive in making decisions. Build momentum towards execution as this is where you’ll get results.
