Start-up, Scale-up innovation and design mentoring
From business plan refinements, to “lean startup plans” and general build-measure-learn for new innovations… I love to mentor and guide start-ups from a creative and design-thinking perspective.
Learning from others’ success and failures opens up the early mind and helps you to re-think, re-fine or pivot when needed.
Make sure you know what serendipity to look out for, get infused by real-world and real-work examples.
From business model to User Experience
Starting with a first concept, roughing out a business model and finding the right user-experience. Then iterating and snowballing until it sticks.
Trust on instinct, customer intimacy and robust systems that have been in place. Don’t reinvent the wheel when you don’t need to.
- But what wheels have been invented?
- What tools are available?
- And where to focus with limited time and budget?
