In this discussion, you will explore the art of speculation and proactive problem-solving by reflecting on your experiences with the simulationso far and considering how your idea will reshape your company’s Business Model Canvas (BMC). This discussion aims to highlight the ripple effect of every decision. As leaders, it is essential to understand how to guide these ripples to ensure they create the intended impact.

Focus on the changes your idea might bring to key components of your selected company, such as value propositions, customer segments, revenue streams, or cost structures, and think critically about the potential impacts on the overall business model.

In your initial post, explain the potential changes your idea might bring to key components of the BMC. To help you reflect on how your idea might impact the BMC, answer the following guiding prompts:

• How does your idea affect the value proposition offered to customers? Will it enhance, alter, or introduce new value for your target audience?
• What changes might your idea bring to the customer segments, channels, or relationships? Could it attract new customers, require different communication methods, or shift how you engage with your audience?
• How could your idea influence the revenue streams, cost structure, or key resources needed to support the business model? Are there new financial opportunities or risks to consider?
• Compare the decisions you made in the simulation with the decisions you are making for your selected company. 

In your responses to at least two of your peers, address the following prompt:

• Consider and share the potential problems or challenges your peers might face when implementing their ideas.
  • How could these obstacles impact key components of the BMC, such as resources, partnerships, or cost structure?
