In other words, how you add value.There is a tool available from Strategyzer called The Value Proposition Canvas that is designed to help you do exactly that. You complete a canvas for each client group or customer segment that you are working with.You start with the section on the right that asks you to define the pain the client is experiencing, what is keeping them up at night with worry, what are they doing that they regret, or not doing that they wish they were doing? What are they unhappy about? Then you move on to think about what they want to gain from their time with you. What are they hoping they will be able to do? What do they want to be different? How do they think their life will be enriched? Remember this is all from their perspective not yours! Then you move on to the "jobs to be done", again from the client's perspective, what does your service need to achieve for them? This can include...

Today's guest is the one and only David Bland, author of the bestselling book Testing Business Ideas co-written with Alexander Osterwalder and part of Strategyzer's book series. David is one of my biggest references in Product. His work, combined with Teresa Torres, is such a potent cocktail for anyone wanting to build better products and discover value more effectively. One of the things I love about David's work is his emphasis on evidence-based decision-making and how practical he made it for teams to adopt this mindset.We talked about: * How to map your assumptions and which risks to consider first* Why working collaboratively and across various areas of the business is so important when testing desirability, viability, and feasibility* Why you should start discovery with a small and 100% dedicated team, and expand as you generate evidence* How desirability and viability are intertwined, and how to go about de-risking it* How to frame hypotheses* How to evolve your evidence from what customers say to what they do (going beyond interviews and surveys)* How to sequence experiments and get the right balance between running 1 experiment and planning ahead* How to test willingness to pay* Characteristics of high-performing teams doing discovery * The importance of time-boxing and connecting it with how the company makes decisions and approaches funding* How leaders can foster a culture of discovery* And more  This is a public episode.

How do you stimulate innovation?In this episode, Alex Osterwalder, CEO and Founder of Strategyzer, talks about what it takes to stimulate and pursue innovation in a difficult and dynamic context. He talks about why CEOs need to invest at least 40% of their time on innovation activities, how they should use new measures (AKIs that complement OKRs), and how to develop inclusive, high performing teams. Alex also talks about the implications for AI in innovation - how it can help develop prototypes and how it will encourage innovation professionals to up their game. “If you're not producing innovation results you're doing innovation theatre.” – Alex OsterwalderYou'll hear about:How organisations practise innovationWhy OKRs don't workSeparating exploration and exploitationCreating an innovation mindsetShould CEOs have split roles? The impact of ecosystems on innovationHow AI is being used in innovationDeveloping high performance inclusive teamsWhat are Alex's strengths?What is Alex's leadership style?The biggest sacrifices Alex has madeAbout Alex:  Alex is the CEO and Founder of Strategyzer, the company that provides corporate innovation strategy advice, tools, and training.

How do you manage your metrics around innovation? How much investment do you need to put into innovation as a mature business? How do you give people the time and structure needed to innovate in your business? This week we asked one of the most influential strategy and innovation experts to come back to The Melting Pot to answer these and some other questions about innovation. Founder and CEO of Strategyzer, Alex Osterwalder reckons that seven out of ten projects that you start within your business need to be killed. And maybe one in ten of your innovation projects is a go, but you're going to need to build a portfolio of maybe 50 live projects that are at any one time to get enough innovation going in your business to make a material change, to get a return on your investment. He also introduced us to the concept of AKIs (Aspirations and Key Insights) – as opposed to Objectives and Key Results – for innovation teams not to produce results, but key insights to understand whether they should kill, iterate or scale a product. Fantastic conversation with Alex.

Better Innovation listeners who have been with us for a few years may feel a sense of déjà vu with this episode. Today's guest, Alex Osterwalder - inventor of the Business Model Canvas, founder & CEO of Strategyzer, and one of the world's most influential strategy and innovation experts - appeared on the show back in November 2018 to speak with Jeff in front of a live audience. Alex and Jeff discussed how organizations can thrive with renewed attention to business modeling.   2018 now feels like a lifetime ago . . . Seeking updated insights from Alex, Jeff hosts a discussion on a new culture of innovation that has emerged and how organizations can reframe their approach to innovation in the context of today's volatile global landscape. Listen-in as Jeff and Alex catch-up and address how business challenges should be converted to innovation challenges to achieve new breakthroughs.

It's not discovery. It's discoveries. If you were asked, how does the company you work for make money? Break it down. Whether it's an early startup living off of seed funding or a corporate empire running multi-billion dollar enterprises across the globe, what part do you play in helping your company thrive as a business?  Some responses might be, “Beats me. But who cares? I'm getting paid.” For how long? It all comes down to that, doesn't it? Money.  Businesses will fight until their last dying breath to stay invincible in a market that never stops shifting. As Alexander Osterwalder, CEO of Strategyzer, simply puts it, “business models are like containers of yogurt in a fridge with an expiration date.” What evidence can we rely on as indicators of progress that the companies we work for will thrive throughout the test of time? Or even the next decade? Or the next meeting? Let's think about: Is it more important to gather requirements on how to build a product or service that isn't supported by strong evidence of demand or usability?  When do Business Requirements Documents (BRD) expire?  When do Assumption Maps expire?  What risks come with falling in love with your first idea of a solution to a systemic problem experienced by the business?  Do our habits of Problem-Solution Fit make us complacent in delaying evidence around Product-Market Fit before scaling to Business Model Market Fit? How often is Software Research & Design (R&D) funded to validate new business ideas before building them for the mass public? Do our habits of peak efficiency limit us in uncovering opportunities & solutions for effectiveness for the same outcome? Does a company that began in Software Research & Design (R&D) share the same measure of variability with a company that began in a PMO?  What does uncertainty look like for a company that carries products and services dependent on both Software Research & Design (R&D) and a PMO? Does our disdain for the risks that come with a PMO make us dismissive in understanding the organization design of how a company makes money? What happens when both good business ideas and bad business ideas get funded in a company?  What risks do we experience as a business when we pivot and when we persevere, but never to kill a bad business idea? Does a company become invincible through the confidence of its leaders claiming certainty around the existing products and services that have given financial security up until now, or is it through the leaders who never stopped being entrepreneurs, that carry the conviction to navigate the uncertainty that comes with running a business? The dichotomy remains.  Find out with newest guest Thomas Schaefer and the return of guest speaker Kaelin Burns, as we uncover what happens when we get caught up in the art of product, but lose sight of the science of business

This week on Innovation Storytellers, we welcome the return of Tendayi Viki, Author of Pirates In The Navy and Associate Partner at Strategyzer. We last spoke to him in episode 20 about how to be an Innovation Pirate in the Corporate Navy. Today, we learn how his path began in Zimbabwe, and how his journey took him to the UK and Stanford University, where he caught the innovation bug. Tendayi discusses how innovation succeeds because it's a passionate person pushing it through. But the truth is, especially in a corporate context, that innovation thrives through collaboration across functions. He also argues that anything that involves creativity or bringing something new into the world will consist of a hit-and-miss process. But that process can also be systematic.  Tendayi believes we are surrounded by the secrets to repeatable innovation success everywhere we look. Listen to our inspiring conversation now, and don't forget to leave a review!

Amy Looper is an AI EdTech/MedTech social venture entrepreneur and the Co-Founder/COO of OneSeventeen Media. With nine partners and a stellar team, she grew her first tech company 8,164% in 35 months resulting in a $158M IPO. Now on her fourth company, Amy and her partner have built a digital mental health & analytics platform called reThinkIt! for School™ that makes kids emotionally healthier through a combination of AI and interpersonal communication and intervention. The evidence-based mobile app has already prevented a school shooting and multiple student suicides. OneSeventeen Media is a Public Benefit Corporation (PBC) recognized for meeting the highest standard of social and environmental performance, accountability and transparency as one of the top 5% of B Corporations in the world using their business as a force for good. Learn more about OneSeventeen Media here. In this episode we discuss: The foundational component to building resilience (at any age) The mental and emotional impact of valuing and validating kids and their experiences An example of repurposing technology to approach a human problem in a new and effective way 4 practical business lessons learned from a serial entrepreneur The value of using an “ecosystem approach” to problem-solving   Key Takeaways: Going back to the story Amy told about being consistently bullied as a child, I can't help but think of the profound impact on self-concept and self-esteem that results from being able to separate our experiences from our identity. When we are able to learn that we are not the same as what happens to us, that we are not the same as how people treat us, then our potential becomes limitless. However, when we internalize these experiences and confuse them with our identity, the narratives end up becoming a prison. I'm blown away by the impact reThinkIt! has had on kids and consequently their school environment. It's great from a school P&L standpoint, but what's more important is the human impact. As a society, what would we pay to reduce or eliminate teen suicide and school shootings? How about teen depression? It seems an obvious choice that the government would mandate reThinkIt! in every single public school. Since we aren't there yet, let's leverage the power of Word of Moms and Dads and PTA's to start demanding it. I'm very intrigued by reThinkIt! being offered through employee benefit programs to help employees' kids. It seems like a really creative solution, and I haven't seen many employee benefits targeted to employees' kids before. I'm curious how much presenteeism is caused by parents being distracted at work with worries about their kids, and how much that loss in productivity would lessen if kids were equipped with a tool they trusted to help them navigate their emotions.

The time teachers spend disciplining students in the classroom, from the “Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation/Scholastic Teacher Survey” says: 53% of teachers reported they would like to spend less time disciplining students; Teachers reported they spend 4 hours out of their 7.5 hour day disciplining students in their classrooms. Report from the American School Counselors Association (ASCA), “State-by-State Student-to-Counselor Ratio Maps By School District” by Pooja Patel and Melissa Clinedinst. The ASCA's data in this report was commissioned for the district-level student-to-counselor ratios to provided and further inform policy discussions at the local, state, and federal level about the need to hire, train, and equip more school counselors. “ASCA recommends that schools strive to maintain a ratio of no more than 250 students per counselor. In 2015–16, only two states, Vermont and New Hampshire, had average ratios that met this standard. There are several additional data points worth noting that also suggest a critical lack of access to school counseling assistance for students nationwide.” 1) The national average during this time (2015 - 2016) was 470 students per one counselor (470:1), nearly double the recommended ratio. 2) Nearly one in five students don't have access to a school counselor, leaving approximately 8 million students without access to proper counseling support. 3) 1.7 million students go to a school with a police officer but no counselors. While the 250 students to 1 school counselor ratio (250:1) has been a long-time recognized standard that various education and counseling industry organizations accepted, to be fair, it should be noted there is debate that this number lacks evidence-based research. There is now a renewed debate and new on-going research about what the exact ratio should be. “Lowest student-to-school-counselor ratio since 1986: Economic recovery and concerns about school shootings led to hiring more counselors” By Jill Barshay, April 27, 2020.

A couple of staggering statistics in support of why products and services that provide a broad range of wellness and mental healthcare solutions for kids need to be easily accessible for them at school and at home: 1) An 80% increase in the percentage of U.S. adolescents reporting a major depressive episode per year, 2010-2018; 2) 3,069 is the number of suicide attempts made on average each day by students in grades 9-12; 3) 75% of children receiving mental health care received that care in a school setting; 4) Youth are 21 times more likely to visit a school-based health clinic for their mental health care than a community-based clinic; 5) 8 in 10 of people considering suicide give some sign of their intentions. “Back to School amidst the New Normal: Ongoing Effects of the Coronavirus Pandemic on Children's Health and Well-Being” by Elizabeth Williams/Kaiser Family Foundation.

COVID-19 produced a business boom. 2020 was a record year for business formation. Here are a few other stats that are important for Entrepreneurs. 80% of Small Businesses have no employees. Less than 2% have 20 or more employees. More than 50% of businesses fail by the 5th year in business. The number one reason businesses fail is due to lack of market demand for product or service. Why is it important to understand the data from the Census, Department of Labor and other sources? Simply put, it will help you better understand macro economics and how that impacts your future success. In my experience as an entrepreneur, in order to succeed you need lots of planning. While a business plan will not eliminate the risk of failing, it will definitely minimize the risk over time. In this episode, I'll discuss ways you can create a scrappy business plan using tools like Gust.com and Strategyzer. For more check out Episode 20.

So, failure's never the goal, but it's an inevitable side consequence of exploration."-Alex Osterwalder__________________________________________________________________________________________Episode Timeline:00:00—Introducing Alex Osterwalder + The topic of today's episode2:05—What is your definition of strategy?3:01—What got you interested in strategy?4:01—Could you explain a "dual culture"?5:50—What are the drivers of culture?8:09—What are you most well-known for?11:16—What should a CEO be encouraging to engage innovative behavior?14:30—What is the key lesson people should take away from the case studies you've described?16:20—What do most companies get wrong?18:07—What's a belief that you've changed your mind about?19:54—What are you working on now, and how can people engage with you?__________________________________________________________________________________________Additional Resources:Personal website: https://www.alexosterwalder.com/Strategyzer Website: https://www.strategyzer.com/

There's no such thing as a bad idea.'and I just think that it sounds good in a sense that you want to democratize innovation, and yet it's very rare that I've ever found any innovation that is succeeded without some strategic connection."-Tendayi Viki__________________________________________________________________________________________Episode Timeline:00:00—Introducing Tendaya Viki + The topic of today's episode1:20—If you really know me, you know that...2:04—What is your definition of strategy?3:07—What got you interested in strategy?5:13—Which comes first—strategy or letting ideas bloom?6:18—What would you say you're most known for?8:15—What story best illustrates why your concept is so important?9:47—Could you explain your concept of "Pirates in the Navy?"12:09—What framework or idea has been most impactful for you?12:56—What's your favorite framework or tool that you like to use?14:40—What are you working on now?__________________________________________________________________________________________Additional Resources:Tendayi's Books

Happy Friday! In today's episode we'll discuss what a business plan should look like in 2021. A question I often get from people looking to launch their own company is "what do I think about the business plan?"   Earlier this week I had the opportunity to listen to 7 start ups pitch their concepts to a group of investors at Remote Demo Day. It's hosted by Jason Calacanis from the Syndicate. One really caught my eye. The name is Fork Farms - they're an agricultural tech start  up on a mission to get fresh food production schools and communities. These start ups had 3 mins to do their elevator pitch. Most of them had between 15-20 slides. It's a lot like Shark Tank! If you're a startup looking for an accelerator, you can apply here.   So here's the deal,  you don't need a 20-30 page plan that no one will read in order to start your business. You can use the 1 page Business Model Canvas to visualize and connect all the business puzzle pieces. Maybe create a 10-15 page deck from presentations. But if you're not going to raise capital then a Business Model Canvas will do.   Here's what the BMC does? it describes the companies and it's product's value proposition, infrastructure, customers, and finances, etc. The template contains 9 "building blocks" see above. In my main business, we pay close attention to the 2 Customer blocks, Segments which are the Channels your customers will fall into and the relationships. It's also helpful to use the Value Proposition Canvas from Strategyzer to expand on the topic of customers.   That element should address three critical steps on a customers relationship: How the business will get new customers how the business will keep customers purchasing or using its services and how the business will grow its revenue from its current customers.   Types of relationships include Self Serve (like DIY), VIP, Membership, Communities = think about the Customer Journey, Customer Experience and if your Customer Service is doing it's best. Business Model Canvas Gust.com Strategyzer Lean Stack ----more---- Questions an entrepreneur needs to answer when creating a business plan. About yourself Ask yourself what's your super power? What are your weaknesses? Is it time to upskill? How much experience do you have in the industry you're going into? What does your personal financial situation look like?

Branding If you're on a tight budget for getting a logo and other assets you can use Spotify's free tools like: Logomaker, Business Name Generator, Domain name lookup, QR code, Terms of use, Privacy Policy & Image Resizer Branding - hire a branding and design agency like SackLunch  Alternatively you can use 99 Designs Create a good story (check out my good friends Dan Grech at BizHack and Shlomi Ron at VSI) Do a Design Thinking exercise- Take a look at https://www.ideo.org/ Web & Technology Design and Develop a Website - Wordpress, Wix, Square Space, Shopify, etc. Technology (hosting, email, cloud for docs, contracts) Customer Service Support (consider a Chat or support ticket system on your website) Marketing & Sales Decide on a Marketing Strategy (perhaps take a class at BizHack) Learn with mini lessons from Google - Primer from Google  Decide on your goals and objectives.

This is really the nuts and bolts of building a business plan that works for you and not the other way around. It's meant to move things along fast. It's all about execution! Don't wait until it's perfect or it'll never go live. In today's global economy that is constantly changing you have to be willing to innovate. You may also consider going to the SBA or SBDC for help from experienced mentors. Before I close this episode I want to tell you that I'm excited about the guests I'm interviewing. Those episodes will start to go live in late April. For now my focus is giving you solid advice on Digital Marketing, Lead Gen and Entrepreneurship and occasionally share my journey as a dad homeschooling my 4 kids with my wife.
