What is Opportunity Scoring?

Opportunity scoring (from Outcome-Driven Innovation) ranks needs by how important they are and how poorly they're currently served. High-importance, low-satisfaction outcomes are your biggest opportunities.

Opportunity = importance + max(importance − satisfaction, 0)

How to read your result

  • Rate each outcome on importance and current satisfaction (1–10).
  • Big gaps between importance and satisfaction score highest.
  • Scores of 12+ are strong opportunities; 10–12 are worth watching.
  • The scatter highlights the top-left 'opportunity zone'.
