SA Entrepreneur Jamie Thurston Wyngaard Details How Solving Problems Lead To Viable Business Opportunities. South African entrepreneur Jamie Thurston Wyngaard believes that in business, one needs to be a problem solver so that they can identify viable solutions they can turn into business ideas. In an interview with Independent Online Wyngaard detailed how solving problems can lead to viable business opportunities.
He said, “I’ve learned you don’t necessarily study science to become a scientist. You study science to learn how to think like a scientist and apply that in everyday situations to creatively solve problems. Solving problems is what creativity is to me. My creative journey has been about facing and solving problems, then turning those solutions into a business.”
Wyngaard knows that in order to establish a business that people can trust, the business has to provide a lot of value as it will be solving the problems that inconveniences them and make their lives better. By doing this the trust is being built that the company can handle the problem it is solving. When people trust a business they will support it, as it will become their first choice due to the problem it is solving for them, they will also recommend it to other people they know so that if they are facing a similar problem they can contact the business.
Wyngaard runs his own concept development Agency. The work of The Agency is to help startups and scaling businesses to ideate, prototype, test, scale and pivot their concepts. The ultimate aim is that they are able to operate autonomously, transparently, and seamlessly. “I thrive on helping customers solve their problems using design thinking as a tool. This married with my focus on using modern technology and platforms helps me to be results-oriented, future-focused, and to build amazing teams that are able to quickly adapt to new insights.” Wyngaard said on his LinkedIn account.
