“Practical. Transformative. Actionable. Leaders should equip their staff with this innovative guide. Follow the instructions. Your business will grow.”
“The Art of Opportunity brings you the artful innovation approach to helping you discover new growth opportunities that you would expect given the title. The book contains many useful tools including some nice approaches to customer journey mapping and practical tools for workshop leaders. It also does a good job of making design thinking and growth planning accessible for the nonexpert innovator. Keep innovating!”
“The question of how to effectively develop innovative business models with linkage to strategy innovation has remained unsolved – both in theory and in practice. This is one of the few books that unites the three components of strategy, business model innovations, as well as creativity techniques, by providing useful methods for corporate entrepreneurs.”
“Sniukas, Lee, and Morasky provide a powerful framework that encourages and empowers readers to apply their own creativity to developing their growth strategy.”

Foreword
When many of today's leaders joined the workforce, “innovation” was synonymous with research and development or process efficiencies – the hallmarks of traditional competitive advantage. Little did any of us know then, that in our lifetimes an entire occupational discipline would emerge to keep companies “innovative” or continuously inventive. Or that titles like “director of innovation” and “chief innovation officer” or even “chief imagination officer” would decorate corporate organization charts.
