THE ART OF OPPORTUNITY
Version 2018-02-12
COURSE OBJECTIVES
All Successful Organization must
eventually answer this question "
How do we grow?"
Hhs the art of opportunity eng [autosaved]
1- "How will you grow your business?"
2- "What opportunities do you see out there?“
"People SEE CHALLENGES .
LEADERS SEIZE OPPORTUNITIES"
MINDSET
The picture above shows two museums
Can we list the difference between the two?
New York
Spain
The major difference is that the one in
New York is circular in nature and you
just keep going up in one direction with
only one entrance..
While the one in Spain is designed in
different shapes with many entrances
that allow you to go in through way and
come out through another..
The one in New York limits you while the
one in Spain does not limit you...
sometimes we design our businesses and
organizations to be LIMITED with no room
for Opportunities
So we will focus on FINDING OPPORTUNITY..
WHO IS YOUR CUSTOMER? Share
with us based on the kind of business
that you do today.
Who is NOT your Customer?
10
What is this? What does it do? and
Who are the customers?
So not all planes flies…
Hhs the art of opportunity eng [autosaved]
Imagine…
“the creator of coca cola was
trying to create cough syrup
not a drink but he ended up
giving us a drink that is more
popular than water”
What if i have a restaurant where
people eat for FREE?
What if they get the
menu only when they
are leaving ?
What if I offer my customers a
30 course meal ?
Hhs the art of opportunity eng [autosaved]
So here are the lessons for us..
In terms of products and services,
Then you are looking for opportunities.
You ask yourself, what can i invent ,
what can i deny and what can i scale?
We have 4 types of customers that we can explore
opportunities with..
Personal Time Management
Imagine that
extra room in
your home is
another hotel
room..
I close with a story of a JCI Member
He died some years ago
he said to us.. "There is so much opportunities
on the streets waiting for us to pick it up"
He observed that many people did not use the
public toilets or the toilets do not even exist
So he created a mobile toilet...
And it became a BIG business
Hhs the art of opportunity eng [autosaved]
• Think Opportunities ..
• Think Non-customers
• Think What If?

Editor's Notes

  • #10: You will notice it is sometimes difficult to think about those who are not your customers? The point i am trying to emphasize is that most times, we do not think about our NON-CUSTOMERS We tend to focus on people that we have DEFINED as customers
  • #11: Another lesson in Art of opportunity is that when you are looking for growth.. You should think about the customers you are currently not serving , or you may have neglected.. For example, if i have a school... My customers are students. If i keep focusing on my students only.. I may not grow or see new opportunities. But if i start asking myself, who are NOT my students.. then i begin to see opportunities..
  • #12: I like that. FIRST objective is to fly.. So there is a possibility that it may not fly
  • #14: My point here is that if we are looking for opportunities.. We must look beyond our current customers and what our products currently do. Absolutely!!! DEEP STRATEGIC CHANGE is what you get when you find new opportunities..
  • #15: It all starts from the THINKING.. it must be provocative You keep asking the question WHAT IF? What if i own a Taxi company without having a taxi? What if my hotel does not have a reception?
  • #16: Do you think this type of restaurant exist? Or is this even possible?
  • #17: It existed.. And was named the best restaurant in the world 5 times. They closed in 2011 to transform into something else You book years in advance to get a seat They made too much money i guess Actually the chef wanted to try new opportunity so El Bulli relaunched as the El Bulli Foundation, a centre of research into new cooking techniques and flavours.
  • #18: Because of time, Let me talk about the opportunities that exist with different types of customers..
  • #19: 1- The Unsatified customers are not contented with your offering . These customers may not buy your product at all or they purchase small quantities. They only buy from you because there is no alternative.. With this type of customers, you need to create offering that interest them.. If you convert them, they become VERY LOYAL and ADVOCATEs 2- The Wannabes are customers who are interested in your product or service but cannot have it due to different reasons .. No access , No money ... Example, A cinema in belgium realised that there was a large market of parents who want to watch movies at the cinemas but they cannot leave the kids alone at home. So the Cinema created a kids program that keeps the kids busy while the parents are watching the movie 3- The refusers - These are customers that know your products and services but they just refuse to buy because they can't see value or relevance to them.. For example, the younger generation want to drive or ride in luxury cars but they don't want to buy it. So Uber will appeal to these customers.. 4- The last group of customers are the unexplored- These are customers that your industry never thought about because we believe they belong to another industry. For example, We always think that when people travel they only want to stay in hotels but AirBnB has shown us otherwise..
  • #22: His mobile toilets created a new market.. He was trying to solve a problem of lack of public toilets But he ended up creating a new market opportunity , new customer opportunity , new product opportunity and he made a lot of money solving a Big problem in Nigeria..
