▼今回はこんな話!このエピソードでは、「フライホイール(弾み車)」というビジネスの成長メカニズムを図で表現する概念について、その魅力や活用方法、限界が語られました。冒頭で、フライホイールという概念、特にAmazonのジェフ・ベゾスが描いたシンプルで美しい構造が好きだという思いが語られました。低価格が顧客を増やし、それが売上を伸ばし、コスト削減を可能にし、さらに低価格につながるというAmazonの例が挙げられました。フライホイールは、会社のフォーカスを確認したり、経営管理ツールとして利用できる可能性がある一方で、実際に運用に乗せるのが難しい面もあり、考え方や美しさが重視されやすい側面があることが指摘されました。「フライホイールだけを作る仕事」をしたいという願望が語られましたが、これはプラクティカルな実務上のニーズが少ない可能性が高いと自認しています。自身が実際に作成・活用した例として、ネットスーパー市場の成長フライホイールが紹介されました。パートナー数の増加、店舗展開、客数増加、売上、利益、新規パートナー誘引といったサイクルを描き、現在のボトルネック(パートナーへの利益創出)を特定し、方針を決定するために活用した具体的なエピソードが語られました。フライホイールを「書く」プロセスについて、まずコンポーネント(要素)を抽出し、それらを矢印で接続し、シンプル化していくという手順が述べられました。フライホイールの「美しさ」を感じるには、事業の構造を理解している必要があり、現場の人にとっては直接関連する業務が少ないため、あまり思いを寄せにくいツールである可能性が示唆されました。これは経営戦略そのものに近いレベルの概念であると位置付けられました。自身のプロジェクト(政府関連)でフライホイールを書いた例も紹介され、正当性の獲得や行政組織との連携強化といった要素を含む独自の構造が示されました。こうしたコンポーネントの表現には、現場に伝わる言葉を使う言語化の工夫が重要である点が語られました。フライホイールは、放っておくと自然に回るものではなく、どこかに詰まりやすい部分があるため、そのボトルネックを特定し、解決すべき課題を明確にするために有効なツールであるという認識が示されました。最後に、フライホイールは「使える家具というよりは、飾るべきアート」に近い性質を持っているのではないかという見解で締めくくられました。▼お便りや感想はこちらからお待ちしています。 https://forms.gle/73RW6Fq7TWMJpfNx9採用された方には、何かノベルティをお送りします。▼フリーアジェンダとは...メルカリでグロースを務めてきた@hik0107と株式会社10Xの創業者&代表である@yamotty3 が仕事のことから哲学、雑談など話すPodcastです。名は体を表す、という諺どおり、かっちりしたアジェンダなく二人のその時のバイブスによって思いついたままに話す、まさに「フリーアジェンダ」なスタイルが特徴。▼有料コミュニティはこちらhttps://community.camp-fire.jp/projects/view/318756▼TwitterFREE AGENDA / Yamotty / Hikaru▼配信アカウントYouTube / Spotify / Anchor / note

Peak Human - Unbiased Nutrition Info for Optimum Health, Fitness & Living
Chris Kruger returns to Peak Human for an electrifying, no-nonsense breakdown of why the calorie paradigm is broken, how hormone health is the real foundation of lifelong fitness, and what he calls the “Forever Jeans” formula — a simple, powerful way to track your health without lab work or complex diagnostics.

This week on The Business of Open Source, I spoke with Nick Veenhof, Director of Contributor Success at GitLab. GitLab has probably the most well-articulated open source strategy out there, and we talked about the two main prongs of that strategy, the co-create strategy and the dual flywheel strategy. We also talked about incentivizing individuals versus incentivizing companies and how to build recognition system as part of the way to encourage people to contribute. We also talked about how to make sure that contributing is accessible — thinking about the “time to success” for contributors in a similar way as how you would think about time to value for software users. The dual flywheel strategy This strategy is based on the idea that as an open source company you want to simultaneously push growth in your open source user base and your customer base, and that the two should reinforce each other. The co-create strategyThe co-create strategy involves encouraging paying customers to contribute to the open source project. In other words, customers who are already paying are encouraged to also invest engineering resources to improve the product. Nick said that this has obvious benefits for GitLab, but it also has benefits for the customers. They end up with a much better understanding of the product, and end up getting more out of the product then they would otherwise. If you want to learn more, I highly recommend having a look at the GitLab Handbook, particularly the section on strategy.

The tools of thinking that fueled the Growth Mindset and fast decisions behind the success of Jeff Bezos. Bezos frames business as a series of silent promises: to customers, to colleagues, to the future. Each promise is a primitive—simple, sturdy, waiting to be linked. When those links form, independence evolves into interdependence, and a whisper becomes a flywheel. In this conversation, we explore how “Day One” thinking keeps the path clear, how a “regret-minimization lens” invites bold choices, and why “single-threaded leadership” protects the soul of a project. Name your primitives—identify the small assets that can connect to others. Map the flywheel—draw how each promise fuels the next. Practice long-horizon thinking—act today as if seven years depend on it.
