19. shaping great ideas
Start with
why
Why are you doing this? What is the situaFon you want to change and
why is it important to change? What might change look like? What do
you believe is possible? What is your preferred future?
Build your understanding
of the context
1 What is the current situaFon? Who does it impact? What is it’s impact
on people, the planet, the economy? What are the possible causes?
Observe. Listen. Learn. Enquire.
Iden7fy your target
audience
Who are you designing your service or product for? Be specific. Who
believe’s what you believe? It’s not everybody.
Get to know your target
audience
3 Seek to understand their needs and aspiraFons, what moFvates them
and their challenges. Develop user personas and user journeys to
provide valuable insights.
Iden7fy the problem you
are solving
How does your idea help your target audience to get what they need or
what they value? How does it help them to overcome challenges and
barriers?
Prototype and
test ideas
Gain insights into customers’ needs by designing and deploying the
smallest amount of funcFonality possible (AKA your minimum viable
product/service). Evolve the soluFon based on insights provided by
engaged early adopters.

28. why use a human-‐centred design approach?
“Because it can help your organizaFon connect be`er with
the people you serve. It can transform data into acFonable
ideas. It can help you to see new opportuniFes. It can help to
increase the speed and effecFveness of creaFng new
soluFons.”

35. What’s their history in
relaFonship to eaFng,
growing, preparing and
buying food?
What’s their rouFne? Daily,
weekly, monthly, annually?
What are their personal
goals around eaFng, cooking,
health & wellbeing?
What moFvates them?
What are the challenges
they face to growing or buying
local food? What are
the constraints/barriers?
What sort of experience are
they looking for? What sort
of interacFon do they want
to have with others/you?
What sort of thing might
you expect them to say
about their ideal experience
and why they love it?
36. Empathyis not just about walking
in another's shoes.
First you must
remove your own.
37. EMPATHY MAP
What do I see?
What do I say and do?
What do I hear?
How do I feel?
What do I think?

39. Having a great idea doesn't guarantee success.
A great business idea must also have a great
business model to support and sustain it.

Business Model Canvas > intro
Let's organize the 9
building blocks: the
Business Model Canvas
Who:
the Business Model
Canvas was invented by
Alexander Osterwalder
and published in his book:
Business Model Generation
What:
a framework showing
the building blocks'
relationships
49. The Business Model Canvas is a tool for
you to design, analyse, test and
describe your business model and how
your organisaFon intends to create,
deliver, and capture value in a profitable
way.

53. Why use Business Model Canvas?
Fundamentally, it delivers three things:
1. Focus: Stripping away the 40+ pages of ‘stuff’ in a tradiFonal business plan, it
can help to clarify and focus on what’s driving the business (and what’s non-‐
core and geMng in the way).
2. Flexibility: It’s a lot easier to tweak the model and try things (from a planning
perspecFve) with something that’s siMng on a single page.
3. Transparency: Your team will have a much easier Fme understanding your
business model and be much more likely to buy in to your vision when it’s laid
out on a single page.
