Innovation by Design - The Testing Phase PIVOT & GRIT

Welcome back to the show everyone.
This week we’re letting our inner mad scientist loose by prototyping and testing our ideas.
You'll learn techniques to prototype and test ideas, why low fidelity, failing often and early is critical and mindsets that matter.
Some common pitfalls are:
Not dedicating the time for testing
Over analysing instead of doing
Weak data - what people say instead of do
Looking for evidence that only confirms your hypothesis
Not doing enough experiments
Failing to learn from insights and iterate
Getting others to do the testing
Top tips are:
Don’t fall in love with your idea
Start low fidelity and increase as you gain evidence
Expose the concept or prototype early and let people be critical
Fail, early, often and low cost
Track feedback, insights and progress
