The nature of product development is changing. The most successful innovations are those that come from teams of people who are exploring problems together. Teams that build meaningful releases of their products iteratively and incrementally are opening the door for early feedback so that decisions can be taken to persevere or pivot based on evidence. But how do you make the most out of a team's different perspectives, experiences and ideas? How can you instill a collaborative mindset in a product development team? How do you find out if your product idea actually has any value? How can you truly understand people's needs? This book presents a toolbox of proven techniques from the field for the whole product team to use together to find answers to these questions and more.
