How do we find a linear problem that needs a circular economy solution? Bec Evans, author of “How to Have a Happy Hustle: the complete guide to making your ideas happen” suggests starting with what’s bugging you, and becoming an ‘avid problem collector’. We look at how our guests in the last series hunted down their linear problems and got clear on what the customer needed – the ‘job to be done’ in ‘Lean’ terms.
We also get an update on ApparelXchange’s new subscription model, and get some ‘bonus’ circular economy examples from David Greenfield (aka Dr Resources of the Circular Economy Club London).
Podcast host Catherine Weetman helps businesses use circular, regenerative and fair solutions to do better, with less.
