Building an MVP – Startup or in the Enterprise, these are the people you need …
Building a Product? This Is The Team You Need To Build Your MVP.
Source: http://www.usabilitycounts.com/author/admin-2/
Even for a MVP, it takes a village to build a product.
The village has several roles, and selecting the right team early can make or break your idea. Your village will never be of an ideal size, but understanding what you need from your townsfolk can help you make some hard decisions on how to staff the team. Early on, flexibility is the key. You may also have to split up the work if it’s a side project and everyone has a day job.
The composition of the ideal team has been a question that’s been on Quora, and great advice can be traced to a simple model that Dave McClure of 500 Startups advocates — Hustler, Hacker, and Designer — but it has to be viewed within the context of what you’re building. This article covers all the roles that go into building a product, and places where you can “cheat”, i.e. fill in with people that are in other roles.

You Don’t Need Big Data – You Need the Right Data
I enjoyed this article from Max Wessel at SAP talking about how big data is not always the answer, but more specifically that you need the right data. There is a lot to unpack when you start apply and adding your business processes to this context.
The term “big data” is ubiquitous. With exabytes of information flowing across broadband pipes, companies compete to claim the biggest, most audacious data sets. And businesses of all varieties — old and new, industrial and digital, big and small — are getting into the game.
Masses of social, weather, and government data are being leveraged to predict supply chain outages. Enormous amounts of user data are being harnessed at scale to identify individuals among a sea of website clicks. And companies are even starting to leverage huge quantities of text exchanges to build algorithms capable of having conversations with customers.
