Snackable Skills Workshop | Growth without the Footprint: 3 Models to Unlock Value from Underutilized Resources
Growth without the Footprint: 3 Models to Unlock Value from Underutilized Resources
Primary Workshop (45 min)
Free and open to all
Bonus Deep Dive (30 min) + Recording
Free for Catalyst Members | $15 otherwise
Most product teams are taught that growth requires more: more users, more infrastructure, more resources.
But what if the next wave of growth comes from better use of what already exists?
In this session, we’ll explore how product leaders can unlock new revenue and customer value by tapping into underutilized resources — turning idle resources, overlooked behaviors, and fragmented systems into new sources of value.
You’ll learn 3 practical product models you can apply immediately, and we’ll break down real-world examples to show how small design decisions can drive both business growth and environmental efficiency.
Then, we’ll turn it into practice:
Identify underutilized resources in your own product or industry
Explore new ways to create value without equally increasing your environmental footprint
Rethink what “scaling” can look like
If you’re looking to grow smarter, not just bigger, this session will shift how you see opportunity.
Workshop led by Renee Davis, ClimateTech CPO & Strategy Advisor
Bonus Lab: Applying Hidden Growth Models (30 minutes)
Free for Catalyst Members | $15 for Non-Members
For those who want to go deeper, stay after the main session for a hands-on working lab.
This is where we move from understanding the models → actually applying them.
In this extended session, we’ll:
Work through 2–3 additional real product scenarios
Identify underutilized resources in each example
Apply the 3 growth models step-by-step
Explore how to drive business value without proportionally increasing emissions
You’ll also have the opportunity to bring your own product, feature, or idea into the discussion and get live input.
This is where the concepts turn into a repeatable skill — something you can use in roadmap planning, strategy conversations, and interviews.
If you’ve ever thought:
“I get the idea, but how do I actually apply this?”
Then this bonus session is for you!
You’ll leave with sharper instincts for spotting hidden growth opportunities in your own work — and more confidence bringing these ideas into your team.
