In this episode, John and I discuss our experience of reading the book, Blue Ocean Shift by W Chan Kim and Renée Morbougne and going through the worksheets for our own company and going through the process with some of our clients.

This is particularly relevant for our clients because many of them are VERY innovative in the ways they solve problems in the rapidly-changing, but also change-resistant, aviation industry!

Featuring a clip from Jasen Barnes, founder of Flight Schedule Pro, starting at about 22:30.
