Summary
After the publication of his New York Times best-selling book, The Lean Startup, entrepreneur and author Eric Ries traveled the world helping companies of every size adopt the Lean Startup approach in order to become more nimble and experimental no matter what their mission. The Leader’s Guide collects and distills the practical, results-oriented advice Ries has dispensed to entrepreneurs, executives, and leaders at early-stage startups, blue chip corporations, and massive federal government agencies.
The Leader’s Guide is for both those who are new to Lean Startup as well as those who love the methodology in principle, but want to know more about how to put it into practice. Packed with real-world examples, the book sheds light on how innovators are tackling questions like:
- How can I convince my team that testing our early ideas with customers doesn’t mean we should sacrifice quality or forget about our vision?
- How can I convince senior leadership that innovation projects require a different system of accounting?
- How can we turn functional specialists in areas like IT, HR, and finance into allies when it comes to supporting new ideas?
Each chapter focuses on an essential principle of Lean Startup strategy and includes an interview with leaders who have been using the method effectively, like Dustin Moskovitz, CEO and founder of Asana, and Chris Boeckerman, Director of Innovation at Procter & Gamble.
Whether you’ve just discovered The Lean Startup, are a practitioner who wants to dive deeper, or work at a company trying to incorporate it at scale, The Leader’s Guide is the ultimate master class in successfully implementing Lean Startup methodology at your organization.
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Lean Startup pt2
Another invaluable lesson from Eric Reis. He really understands how you need to create and support innovate growth teams. This audio book has more great case studies and examples. If anyone in your business says you need to innovate, then refer them to his books first.

Big Companies' life insurance
I read the Lean Startup quite a while ago and loved it.
This book is taking the lean startup into big companies, dealing with company culture, metrics which only measure success not celebrate failure and learning.
I especially liked the comparison of the little innovative group in big companies to a life insurance from one of Eric's guests. Big companies can be like dinosaurs and hard to change. If you create small teams, encourage people to speak up, you can try to ensure the company won't go under as times change.
I am so happy that even big companies are starting to change.

Fantastic book. Truly career changing.
Eric Reis lifts the thought from a LEAN Startup up to a managerial level, summed up in inspiring discussions with industry veterans at the end of each chapter.

Good, but not as good as his other work
I really liked Eric Ries other audio books, I learned so much. This didn't have the same engagement or energy, but it had intervioews with people which was really good. Worth a listen.
