Published in 1994, Long Walk to Freedom tracks Mandela’s life from his early years through to the experiences of spending 27 years in prison on Robben Island under the apartheid government. The last chapters of the book cover Mandela’s political ascension after being released from prison and how, despite him tackling the country’s segregated society, the symptoms of apartheid South Africa remained. More recently, Long Walk to Freedom has been adapted into a film, with Idris Elba playing Nelson Mandela. About Nelson MandelaNelson Mandela was a South African anti-apartheid activist and political leader. After spending 27 years in prison for encouraging anti-apartheid views, Mandela became South African president. He became the country’s first black head of state and won the Nobel Peace Prize for his push for an anti-apartheid South Africa. Widely recognized as one of the most influential people of the 20th century and an icon of democracy and social justice, Mandela has received over 250 honors. He is deeply respected in South Africa today, and described as the “Father of the Nation”.“No one is born hating another person because of the color of his skin, or his background, or his religion. People must learn to hate, and if they can learn to hate, they can be taught to love, for love comes more naturally to the human heart than its opposite.” - Nelson MandelaA Country childhood Johannesburg Birth of a Freedom Fighter Learn more about your ad choices.

The key lies in understanding that a startup is different to a traditional business. You can’t afford to waste time and resources where they are not getting results. A startup needs to be lean, informed and adaptable. Now there is a guide to help you achieve that with your company. The Lean Startup is a New York Times bestseller. It has sold over one million copies and has now been translated into over thirty languages. It is a guide for entrepreneurs, business owners, and innovators alike. The book provides a framework for creating successful businesses. The lean startup methodology is a systematic approach. It involves continuous innovation, experimentation and data-driven decision-making. This allows a business to maximize success while minimizing risk. The Lean Startup process focuses on quickly validating ideas before investing too much time or money into them. This allows entrepreneurs to identify which ideas are worth pursuing and which should be discarded early in the process, saving valuable resources.Toyota's lean manufacturing revolution inspired the Lean Startup. This revolution incorporated:  attending to the ideas and knowledge of the workers, making smaller batch sizes, implementing just-in-time production, and accelerating cycle times.  It is better to have cross-functional teams that each focus on different stages of the growth cycle. As the product ages, it gets shifted from one team to the next.“In my Toyota interviews, when I asked what distinguishes the Toyota Way from other management approaches, the most common first response was genchi gembutsu—whether I was in manufacturing, product development, sales, distribution, or public affairs. You cannot be sure you really understand any part of any business problem unless you go and see for yourself firsthand. It is unacceptable to take anything for granted or to rely on the reports of others.” – Eric RiesThe book is structured in three parts: Vision, Steer, and Accelerate.
