3 Guaranteed Ways to Uncover Opportunities for Growth

Urquhart Wood, Ohio Practice Leader for Strategyn Consulting, an award winning innovation and growth strategy consulting firm, will be speaking at the Reynoldsburg Area Chamber of Commerce about 3 approaches they take with clients that consistently uncover opportunities for value creation.

  • Sarah Miller Caldicott, the co-author of the bestselling book Innovate Like Edison, has said "Strategyn's Outcome-Driven Innovation methodology is the most robust process for driving value creation that I have ever seen. The ability it gives leaders and team members to laser-target their product development efforts is unparalleled.”
  • Outcome-Driven Innovation (ODI) was selected one of the “Best Business Ideas of the Year” by the editors of the Harvard Business Review in 2002.
  • While new product success rates are notoriously low, an independent study conducted in 2010 found that 86% of new offerings launched using Strategyn’s methodology were successful in the marketplace.
  • Strategyn has helped clients generate billions of dollars in revenue from new products and services.

Seating is limited and reservations must be made by Tuesday, March 1, at noon.
