meetings with the BMGEN community
Long nice chat with Tim Clark, Prof. at Tsukuba University (web) and main author of Business Model You (BMY), on BMGEN and BMY. Visit in his class on Personal Development for MBA students.
Long interesting discussion with Pat Van der Pijl, founder and CEO of Business Model Inc (web), Amsterdam. He arrived in Tokyo for giving, together with Prof. Konno, a workshop for executives of a large Japanese company. Our discussion concerned the content of workshops on how to design business models in companies and the design process, with visual tools inspired by David Sibbet in Visual meetings (amazon) and gaming techniques suggested by Luke Hohmann in Innovation Games (amazon). Short meeting with Karl Burrow, CEO of a consulting firm on business models at Tokyo.
Fruitful and inspiring long discussion with Yasuhiro Watanable, blog author (fb) and translator of BMYou & Dr Shin Yamamoto, fellow at Tama University. Together they launched a dynamic BMGEN community (web) in Japan. They give workshops on business models on a regular basis in Japan (web). Yasuhiro Watanabl is also the founder of the Word Alliance Reading Magazines (WARM). Shin Yamamoto launched a nice initiative “Hero de BMGEN” with kids and parents designing together mind maps, empathy maps and business models in a highly ludic way.
