About this course

Diogo Mendonça introduces the early questions behind a new product or service. Innovation and strategy lead into a short product-and-service script that records the value proposition, objectives and constraints, along with a map of the people involved.

The final lessons compare development life-cycle models and introduce Design Thinking, Lean and Agile. This makes the course a starting point for choosing an approach to an idea, rather than a complete manual for launching and running a company.

Skills you’ll gain

  • Describing an idea through value, objectives and constraints
  • Identifying stakeholders around a proposed offering
  • Comparing product-development life-cycle approaches
  • Recognizing how Design Thinking, Lean and Agile differ in emphasis

Five lectures in one section total 40 minutes, with a life-cycle quiz listed. Curiosity about innovation and entrepreneurship is expected; no formal technical prerequisite is specified. The source was updated in 2018, so its value is primarily the introductory concepts.

The stated script and stakeholder map can be drafted with ordinary writing and drawing tools. No paid design platform is named as necessary. Choosing an approach still depends on the specific problem, resources and evidence about the customer, rather than on a universal recipe for business success.
