Lean Business Planning

Lean Business redefines the business plan. From being a static document used for financing purposes alone the business plan becomes a dynamic tool covering all elements needed within lean business development. Through eight intuitive steps the authors take us on a journey starting with the overarching strategic issues, all the way through to the tactical implementation and everyday tasks. This makes business development a continuous activity, not an all-out effort once a year.
