Value-through-progress
The progress economy reframes value creation by focusing on progress rather than static value. Progress is seen as a dynamic movement towards a more desirable state, with value emerging as this progress is made. This approach encourages systematic innovation by addressing progress hurdles and recognizing the complexities and multifaceted nature of value creation.
Progress Attempts
What we’re thinking Progress attempts are how seekers reach their individual progress sought. They’re a tale of progress-making activities, resources, resource integrations, judgements of progress, progress hurdles; success and failure. Expanding on the concepts of progress, and, that value emerges from that. Let’s explore here how a seeker attempts to progress (which forms the foundation […]
Progress Offered
What we’re thinking Progress offered is the progress state – capturing functional, non-functional and contextual aspects – a progress proposition offers to help a seeker reach. Ideally, it should match an individual seeker’s current progress attempt’s progress sought. However, such customisation can significantly raise the equitable exchange progress hurdle. To address this challenge, helpers often segment seekers […]
Progress Potential
What we’re thinking Progress potential is the progress state that an actor phenomenologically judges, at particular moment in time, could be reached in a progress attempt. It is regularly judged by progress seekers as part of their decision process to start and continue progress attempts, alone or with propositions. Progress helpers predict it for their […]
Progress Sought
What we’re thinking Progress sought is the more desirable progress state – capturing functional, non-functional, and contextual elements – that a progress seeker wishes to reach. Upon reaching progress sought, the seeker likely recognises maximum value. It complements progress origin, giving us a fuller picture of a seeker’s journey and the gaps towards that. It also has […]
Progress Reached
What we’re thinking Progress reached is the progress state that an actor phenomenologically judges to have been reached at a specific point during a progress attempt. These judgements relate to value in two ways. First it indicates how much value an actor feels has emerged by that point. Secondly, we find that for emerged value […]
Progress Origin
Progress origin captures an individual seeker’s starting state for the current progress attempt. It also captures the starting state a proposition offers to help make progress from. These two origins are likely to differ.
Progress as a verb and a state transition
What we’re thinking In the progress economy we believe seekers are trying to make progress – from their current progress origin to a more desirable state (progress sought) – with everything in their life. Progress can therefore be seen equally as: As such, it is both a super-charged description of a job to be done, […]
Progress as a State
What we’re thinking Progress is a state – a snapshot comprising three elements, namely: Discovering and understanding all three elements is critical for understanding seeker’s desires, making progress, progress propositions, value, and pursuing successful innovation. Failing to do so may lead to the next super-market self checkouts… Progress as a state Progress as a state […]
Progress as a noun
What we’re thinking We find it beneficial to name some specific progress states. Firstly, these named states serve as waypoints describing a seeker’s journey on progress attempts. Secondly, they help us explore and explain value in the progress economy; explaining Drucker’s famous quote: Innovate or die Without further delay, let’s delve into the five commonly used named […]
