Design Thinking & Lean Entrepreneurship
Design Thinking encourages a user-centric approach to creating products. Developers often get too attached to a solution-centric approach to product design and have the mindset of "build it and they will come" (if it's a good product). Combining Design Thinking methodologies and the Lean approach for startups allows a developer/entrepreneur to have a strong grasp on market demand and user problems before jumping to development.
