MARCO’S
PROBLEM-SOLVING
STRUCTURE

To find a solution, most of my projects begin with building a structure using four approaches - Framing Questions, Winning Strategy, Blue Ocean Strategy, and User Journey Map.

  1. Using framing questions, I have been able to consider different perspectives and scope activities within a given amount of time and resources.

  2. Winning Strategy helps me develop a feasible business model & strategic plan to implement a solution.

  3. Using User journey map, I am able to identify the unmet needs and painpoints of the user and simulate the solution concept in users scenarios.

  4. Using a Blue Ocean Strategy, I can analyze products in the market and differentiate the solution's value proposition.

Although the four structures may appear complex, they originated from one fundamental concept: understanding the users. My speciality, as a Product designer, is that I can create value driven solutions from understanding the users’ circumstances.
