April 2021: Innovation: Pretotyping does it better

View this email in your browser Hi <<First Name>>,

2021 has been a busy one so far - can you believe we're already over a quarter of the way through the year? I hope you enjoyed a break over the Easter long weekend (I know I certainly did), and are ready to dive right into the second quarter of 2021; I have a feeling that the EOFY will be on us faster than you can say pretotyping. Alongside our roster of consultations and workshops, we've been hard at work on a new blog series for our website, discussing some of the major innovation methods out there and how they could be made better by incorporating pretotyping. Our free slack channel has been exploding with new members, who've brought lots of interesting questions and opinions; we've also seen a few new graduates from our online pretotyping course . Find out more about what we've been up to + some insights into the world of innovation below!

Sign up here , if you haven't already! Innovation? Pretotyping does it better. We've been working on a new blog series that looks at some of the major innovation methodologies out there and explains why combining them with pretotyping could make them even better. Check out part #1 on the Lean method or part #2 on Agile values and the Scrum method on our blog, with 3 more installments coming soon. SpaceX Starship: accelerated learning or #epicfail?

As always, I've been keeping a watchful eye on the innovations of the world around us, including the recent SpaceX Starship test out of Starbase in Texas. The test for SN11, the fourth high-altitude flight test of Starship, resulted in yet another "Rapid Unscheduled Disassembly" (in other words, it exploded, just like the others). It has many people laughing and shaking their heads, but is it really the failure that it seems? I'd suggest that the Starship blowing up four times in a row is actually massively accelerated learning that just looks like failure to the untrained eye. Read more about the SpaceX Starship mission here and let me know your thoughts!
