MVP: Massive Venue Popularity
A tale about Lean and Agile development, in which perfection leads to failure, and imperfection to success.
“Guess what happened to me last weekend?” Sophia exclaims, her voice tinged with a mix of frustration and excitement as she addresses her team.
The team has mixed feelings. On one hand, they relaxed a bit, and on the other, they felt like they were wasting time. A meeting just to talk about the weekend? Sophia continued.
“I missed a Jazz concert that I would have loved,” she said, and the room began to feel a bit confused. “Just because I had no clue it was happening! This got me thinking, we’re missing a golden opportunity here.”
Suddenly, their faces glow. It wasn’t the first time she had found a golden opportunity in something so simple.
“We’re going to build an app. Not just any app, but one that makes sure no one ever misses out on great local events again. Surely, there are many people who don’t enjoy the events they want, simply because they don’t know about them. We need to investigate if we can find a viable solution. What do you think about starting simple? With an MVP and go on investigating. Can I count on you?”
