Creating ValueFirst Product Organisations
summary
Claims a repeatable method that makes product projects succeed near 100% by quantifying stakeholder outcomes, not features or user stories. Teams list 20–50 stakeholders, set numeric goals (example 75% waste collection target for a waterless toilet) and prioritize by value per resource, then deliver outcome improvements each sprint. Case results: a startup wins a $1M Gates prize, ConfirmIt cuts generation time from hours to 15 seconds response time and captures market, a CRM project avoids €9.3M lost; Intel trains 20,000 engineers in the method.
