How it fits with those other activities depends on the context of the organization and the project.

Workshop agenda

The image below shows an example of a typical agenda. It should not be taken as fixed: it is a reference for how the activities can flow throughout the week.

Typical activities during the week include:

• Defining the product vision.
• Describing personas (target users).
• Identifying product features.
• Technical, UX, and business review.
• Sequencing features.
• Defining the MVP canvas.

Common mistake

Treating the Lean Inception as a substitute for user research. The workshop starts from hypotheses about the user and the market: if those hypotheses have not been validated beforehand with real users, the MVP that comes out of the session may be perfectly aligned with the team's beliefs and completely disconnected from the customer's needs. The Lean Inception is most useful when the team already has some knowledge of the user; if that knowledge does not exist, prior research is essential.
