The Book

Business Model Generation by Alexander Osterwalder (left) and Yves Pigneur (right).

Who is it For?

To quote the book cover: “Visionaries, game-changers and challengers striving to defy outmoded business models and design tomorrow’s enterprises.”

Visual Delight

Filled with diagrams and not pages of words.

Practical

One third of the book is design thinking techniques for you to create or re-invent your business model. Plus numerous examples.

Book Rapper Thinks…
