The Value Creation Chain

A way to look at business by tracing value from problem to customer to captured economics.

Every business is part of a chain. Raw materials, technology, distribution, sales, operations, capital and ownership all sit somewhere inside it.

The strategic question is not simply “What skill should I learn?” It is “Where in the chain can I create and capture disproportionate value?”

This framework is still being developed. The goal is to make the invisible economics of ordinary work easier to see.
