Lean Canvas


Bussines?

The Lean Canvas is based on the Business Model Canvas designed by Alex Osterwalder. Thanks to Ash Maurya we can enjoy a specific adaptation of the business model canvas for entrepreneurs who are working on their business idea when launching their own startup.
As we explained in the Business Model Canvas post, that canvas is divided into two parts (the right part talks about the market, and the left part refers to the company).

In this case, the Lean Canvas has a more practical division for those who are looking for an innovative and viable business model. The right part continues to reflect the environment (market) but the left part helps you reflect on your product / service.

As you can see, the approach has points in common, but with some important subtleties.

Below I explain more fully what are the adaptations of the Lean Canvas blocks with respect to the traditional Canvas or Osterwalder Canvas:

Customer segment:

 In the case of entrepreneurs it is important to define the figure of Early Adopters. Going to the first mass market is very dangerous !!! There is always a profile more given to welcoming your product / service before others, your visionaries !!

Customer relations becomes a unique special advantage: 

It is the most difficult block to define at first. It is something that is acquired over time. Do not worry, at this moment it is more important that you focus on the rest of the blocks, for now you can leave it blank.

Key partnerships become a problem: 

This is not the time to think about who you are going to associate with if you still do not know why your clients will pay you… It is more critical for the entrepreneur to identify what REAL problem his Early Adopter profile suffers from. You must also reflect on the alternatives present in the market.

Key activities becomes a solution: 

You must reflect on how you are going to solve your client's problem.
Key resources becomes key metrics:
 In this box the indicators for decision making will be defined. It is important that you define them well to know if you should pivot or persevere.

Activity Theory

Activity Theory In this case, we will talk a little more about the resources that we will use to manage a project that we want to use, be it a product that we want to sell or a change proposal. Activity theory is a tool that helps us collect information at home aspect of our project, it is more a meta-theory than a predictive theory. This considers the entire work / activity system (including teams, organizations, etc.), in other words it does not focus only on the person, but also on your own team and the environment that is managed. I like to think of this tool as something more realistic for our project since I feel that it is more complete because it takes ourselves into account. The activity theory is represented by a triangle which contains the following: This triangle can be managed on 3 levels: Activity towards a goal (goal) carried out by a community. A result of a reason (need) that may not be aware of the social and personal meaning of the activity (Answer the quest...

The art of thinking

Since we were born we have been in constant physical development, we become fat, we become thin, we grow, etc., but in the same way we have a mental development that is constant, as time goes by we learn more and more to the point where we reason, where we characterize a very important thing, our thinking, our way of thinking. This is not something new, since our ancestors this was already exercised, we simply had not thought clearly what exactly we think and why and how we came to that thought, well, let me explain that there is an answer for all this since there are several types of thinking which we use without realizing it, they are very important, therefore, I will explain a little more about them. What are the Thinking Skills? Well, the thinking skills are the mental processes that allow people to process any type of information, gain knowledge and solve problems. These skills are important because they allow the human being to think and act in a generalized way, as well as t...

Welcome to my blog! (Introduction)

Let's start to make clear the purpose of this blog. It is dedicated to all topics related to cognitive skills and creativity, therefore I will try to talk about each of them in detail but, first of all, let's talk in general about, What are Cognitive Skills? What is Creativity? Cognitive Skills It is very simple to understand what it is, therefore, cognitive skills are all those where the human being processes the information and "how" it processes, that is, memory use, attention, perception and CREATIVITY Creativity Creativity is the ability that we have to be able to think of new methods / possibilities to be able to invent or create something either new or improve something, they can be objects, ideas, representations, etc. So, as we can say that cognitive skills and creativity are one, I like to see it as follows, there is a large box called cognitive skills and inside that box there is another box called creativity, and inside that box there are m...
