<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">According to Blank (2013), the old concept for start-ups infers
that exposing prototypes is dangerous due to competitors. Thus, entrepreneurs
spend lots of months searching and developing a product/service inside the
building and then go to the market with the risk of getting the product/service
wrong. </span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">This is one of the reasons why many research studies have shown 75% of all
start-ups fail, since most common is that the start-ups even do not know who their

they know it; get out of the office and test hypotheses” (Blank, 2013). The
lean start-up method proposes making start-ups less risky and aims a lower
start-up failure. The model predicts an
improvement in the whole economic system, since many workers will be hired if
the small businesses survive and achieve success over the time.</span><o:p></o:p></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">For years, MBA programs have trained base on large-company
approaches. Now more than 25
universities are teaching Lean start-up approach and are become conscious that
new businesses need different management tools. The main idea behind the lean
start-up approach is that entrepreneurs, instead of focusing on just developing
a business plan, must to define the “assumptions of the new venture, testing
those assumptions in the field (get your hands dirty), and then changing
(pivoting) based on the lessons learned” (Blank, 2013).</span><o:p></o:p></div>

that we have the market research concept which has a high validity with respect
to the information obtained. However, for a start-up, a study market research
could be too costly and you could get the "analysis paralysis illness :(</span><o:p></o:p></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Kotler & Keller state that Marketing is "about
identifying and meeting human and social needs" (2012). New entrepreneurs
seek a response. Marketing can help them to introduce new products and build
demands. The lean start-up model is about to preserve you cash until you have
product/market fit. It sounds great for new entrepreneurs since that means to
design the product/service with the help of consumers, far more quickly,
cheaply and effectively.</span><o:p></o:p></div>

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">In my opinion, the only reason why illegal discrimination persists nearly 50
years after the passage of Title VII of the Civil Rights Act is resumed in one
phrase: Feeling of superiority (or inferiority). Humans are ruthless when we
are in positions of advantage over others. The only antidote that cures to
suffer the evil of superiority or inferiority is the education in values. We should educate values to our children, and even educate ourselves on values such as respect, justice, love, mercy, etc. <span class="hps" style="line-height: 200%;">Who said</span><span style="line-height: 200%;"> </span><span class="hps" style="line-height: 200%;">adults</span><span style="line-height: 200%;"> </span><span class="hps" style="line-height: 200%;">can not learn</span><span style="line-height: 200%;"> </span><span class="hps" style="line-height: 200%;">values?</span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 200%;">It is sad to see unlawful discrimination at all levels within human institutions, within firms, schools, church... No matter age or level of education. As

We can learn from others, read about it, join a religious group, watch </span><span style="line-height: 32px;">YouTube videos (yes, videos). Let's make something to be better people and we are going to see a change!</span></span><br />
