In this Stretch Goals Podcast Quick Hit, Scott and I are going to talk about why the minimum viable product, or your MVP, is dead. This applies to software startups in Silicon Valley and any small business in any industry of entrepreneurship. We see this a lot in the startup world... you define your MVP and start building it only to find out that it is way more scope that you had planned.

In this episode we talk about why you should take a step back from what you "think" the MVP is and break it down into the RAT (riskiest assumption tests). This is an important part of software development and product design. With our coaching and management tips, we hope you will find more success in your product development leadership.

In the software world, developing your MVP is often a very time intensive process with lots of corners being cut.
