Book Review: 2/5 Impact On Me (Book By Steve Blank)
Read more about the book here
I know the author, Steve Blank, is well-known, but I didn't get much value from this book. I couldn't even finish reading it. The book confuses the process with the outcome. For example, it gives many successful examples from years ago and talks as if the processes those companies or products had were good. It tries to put a framework around startup success by choosing anecdotes. However, I think there is a lot of randomness in startup success, especially at the idea stage. So, I do not think the book is actionable. I rate its impact on me as two out of five.
