The Opportunity Outcome-Driven Innovation

Where the unmet demand actually is.

The same interview, run through the ODI prioritization. Twenty-four desired outcomes, each scored on importance and satisfaction, plotted as a landscape, so the under-served separate cleanly from the well-served. Then mapped back onto the jobs they belong to.
The landscape
Importance against satisfaction
Each outcome sits where its importance meets how well today's workflow satisfies it. Below the served line, important but unsatisfied, is open opportunity. Above it, the workflow already does enough.
Open opportunity · important, unsatisfied (below the line) Served · satisfaction meets importance Over-served · the workflow already does enough
Satisfaction with current workflow →
Served line · satisfaction = importance
