Eric Ries' adaptation of Toyota's Lean production principles to business are vital for entrepreneurs and the world at large to hear. So much time, energy and resources are currently being wasted. Initiatives are failing. Businesses are failing. Organizations are failing. But there is a systematic way to learn and adapt to flush out and overcome assumptions before resources are committed and building begins. Eric Reis' best selling book, "The Lean Startup" begins this conversation, but Eric should be given the opportunity to give a TED talk so his insights can reach more people around the world.

At this point in time, there are no ideas that are more worth spreading..
