For those familiar with systems thinking, "Value Mapping" will be the logical starting point for looking at any issue or problem. This is because a "Value Map" is a diagrammatic representation of a business system which enables a group of stakeholders to form a common understanding of how their business system works.

​

From this common understanding of the system comes a shared view of what the important levers are for generating beneficial change. This can either be through the grasping of value creation opportunity, or through reducing value destruction. This in turn enables the group to look at alternative options for the future, and through examining these in the light of the agreed "Value Map" to reach a shared Vision of the best way forward.

​

In a business development context a Value Map can be used to make explicit how value is created for customers or prospects in order to configure your product or service proposition to deliver maximum value.

​

Clients who have made the journey to create a "Value Map", with us acting as their guide, have found the process both illuminating and extremely valuable for creating stakeholder coherence. It really is possible to get to a common Vision which all can buy in to.
