Which of the following factors are considered boundary conditions that influence the effectiveness of the Lean Startup methodology? Select all that apply.

The main boundary conditions that can limit how well the Lean Startup works are the size of the market, the regulatory environment, the complexity of the product, the experience level of the team, and the speed of customer feedback. A very small market may not provide enough data points for testing, while strict regulations can block rapid iterations. If the product is highly complex or requires specialized knowledge, the usual rapid experiment cycle may be too slow or costly. Teams that lack startup experience may struggle to interpret data and pivot quickly. Finally, when customers cannot give quick, honest feedback, the lean cycle stalls, reducing the method’s effectiveness.
