Questions

I am exploring application of lean startup principles to a niche industry that has nothing to do with entrepreneurship. In other words, the principles wouldn't be applied to creating a start up, but it would treat an individual as the product/start up and invite individuals to identify their own value proposition for employers or in situations where they need to demonstrate value. Is it okay to call a product developed for this purpose "lean" as in "lean career development"?

Everyone who has answered is correct so far. The term and principles of "Lean" have existed for a long time. You can also check with the Lean Enterprise Institute (http://www.lean.org/). The term was coined in the late 80's by MIT prof Jim Womack to describe Toyota's process (http://www.lean.org/WhatsLean/)
