Kaplan is a seminar and conference speaker on [[business]], [[entrepreneurship]], product value, business strategies, and market research. He has been quoted in publications such as US Reporter,<ref>{{cite web |title=Unraveling the Mysteries of Business Success: An In-depth Interview with Jaroslav Kaplan - US Reporter |url=https://usreporter.com/unraveling-the-mysteries-of-business-success-an-in-depth-interview-with-jaroslav-kaplan/ |website=usreporter.com |accessdate=7 December 2023 |date=29 November 2023}}</ref> CEO World,<ref>{{cite web |last1=Davis |first1=Katherina |title=Reimagining PR and Marketing through Context-Based Market Research with Jaroslav Kaplan |url=https://ceoworld.biz/2023/10/25/reimagining-pr-and-marketing-through-context-based-market-research-with-jaroslav-kaplan/#google_vignette |website=CEOWORLD magazine |accessdate=7 December 2023 |date=25 October 2023}}</ref> LA Weekly,<ref>{{cite web |last1=Bakian |first1=Written in Partnership with Amir |title=Evolving Perspectives on Business: Jaroslav Kaplan & Business Intellect's Vision for Entrepreneurs - LA Weekly |url=https://www.laweekly.com/evolving-perspectives-on-business-jaroslav-kaplan-business-intellects-vision-for-entrepreneurs/ |website=www.laweekly.com |accessdate=7 December 2023 |date=31 October 2023}}</ref> Digital Journal,<ref>{{cite web |last1=Stojan |first1=Jon |title=Exploring Leadership Technology in our digital age with Jaroslav Kaplan |url=https://www.digitaljournal.com/business/exploring-leadership-technology-in-our-digital-age-with-jaroslav-kaplan/article |website=Digital Journal |accessdate=7 December 2023 |date=31 October 2023}}</ref> MSN,<ref>{{cite web |title=The Subtle Art of Business Intellect, with Jaroslav Kaplan |url=https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/other/the-subtle-art-of-business-intellect-with-jaroslav-kaplan/ar-AA1k2XD7?disableErrorRedirect=true&infiniteContentCount=0 |website=www.msn.com |accessdate=7 December 2023}}</ref> Khaleej Times, and London Insider.<br />
<br />
==Education==<br />
Kaplan completed his [[Master's degree|master’s]] in economics from the Riga Technological University of Civil Aviation, graduating in 1997.<br />
<br />
==Career==<br />
In 2015, Kaplan founded Kaplan Research Company, a business consulting company. The company's primary objective is to conduct market research and implement the results to enhance enterprises.<ref>{{cite web |title=«Это паршивый бизнес». Почему Уоррен Баффет пожалел денег на новые станки : |url=https://pro.rbc.ru/demo/63da0c1d9a7947cca18ca8e1?fbclid=IwAR2gRwBK8HvnUuMLfIh_ajV6CPcy0SSZ2m89zWL1_hNSF_3NmlF2KmKXIf4 |website=РБК Pro |accessdate=7 December 2023 |language=ru}}</ref> Since its inception, the company has been assisting businesses in all industries in attaining their goals and objectives through consulting services.<ref>{{cite web |title=Kā uzņēmējam attīstīt savu harismu? |url=https://forbesbaltics.com/lv/viedokli/raksts/ka-uznemejam-attistit-savu-harismu |website=forbesbaltics.com |accessdate=7 December 2023}}</ref><br />
<br />
The same year, Kaplan initiated the Business Intellect IQ Project, a research project that sought to quantify and improve the capacity of entrepreneurs to define and resolve business challenges.<ref>{{cite web |title=Ярослав Каплан — все книги и биография автора в интернет-магазине «Альпина Паблишер» |url=https://alpinabook.ru/authors/yaroslav-kaplan/ |website=alpinabook.ru |accessdate=7 December 2023 |language=ru}}</ref> Kaplan noticed that only three out of ten businesses survive their tenth anniversary; thus, to determine the cause of the high "business mortality rate" in entrepreneurship, he initiated research into the matter.<ref>{{cite web |title=Kā paplašināt biznesa domāšanas robežas? |url=https://forbesbaltics.com/lv/viedokli/raksts/ka-paplasinat-biznesa-domasanas-robezas |website=forbesbaltics.com |accessdate=7 December 2023}}</ref><br />
<br />
During his six years of research, Kaplan compiled a list of the most "common" entrepreneurial mental misconceptions and erroneous beliefs that lead to failure. His debut publication, "The Odyssey of Goshio the Goldfish," was based on these elements. The book functions as a narrative and a structural framework for entrepreneurs and has been translated into fifteen languages.<ref>{{cite web |title=Cīņa par līderību – uzņēmēji pret vadītājiem |url=https://forbesbaltics.com/lv/viedokli/raksts/cina-par-lideribu---uznemeji-pret-vaditajiem |website=forbesbaltics.com |accessdate=7 December 2023}}</ref><br />
<br />
Kaplan concluded his initial research in 2021 and authored "Business Incognita: How to Expand the Boundaries of Entrepreneurial Thinking."<ref>{{cite web |last1=Davenport |first1=Mary |title=The Essence of Achievement: Unveiling 'Business Incognita' with Jaroslav Kaplan |url=https://londoninsider.co.uk/the-essence-of-achievement-unveiling-business-incognita-with-jaroslav-kaplan/ |website=London Insider |accessdate=7 December 2023 |date=25 November 2023}}</ref> The book was published by one of the largest and most prestigious publishing houses in Russia, [https://alpinabook.ru/catalog/book-biznes-incognita/?offerId=90411 Alpina Publisher].<br />
<br />
The book is the most comprehensive research work on the perception of value that has ever been accomplished.<ref>{{cite web |title=Что лежит в сердце предпринимательского мышления |url=https://dzen.ru/a/ZP4vRkDKEHCmZ5e4?sid=109589354920300759 |website=dzen.ru |accessdate=7 December 2023}}</ref> The book unravels the results of research into Business Intellect as a distinct phenomenon—one that involves posing and resolving problems that arise in the course of entrepreneurial activities.<ref>{{cite web |title=Каплан Ярослав - пользователь, сотрудник {{!}} ИСТИНА – Интеллектуальная Система Тематического Исследования НАукометрических данных |url=https://istina.msu.ru/profile/JaroslavKaplan/ |website=istina.msu.ru |accessdate=7 December 2023 |language=ru}}</ref> The main focus of analysis in such business tasks is how various target markets perceive the value of products or services. There is no value without having a product, yet the existence of a product does not, by itself, imply high value for the consumer. And that is the dilemma to be solved in the entrepreneurial task.<ref>{{cite web |title=Uzņēmuma sabrukuma neredzamie prognozētāji |url=https://forbesbaltics.com/lv/viedokli/raksts/uznemuma-sabrukuma-neredzamie-prognozetaji |website=forbesbaltics.com |accessdate=7 December 2023}}</ref><br />
<br />
==Professional associations==<br />
Kaplan is a member of the International Association of Specialists in Strategic and Competitive Intelligence (SCIP, USA), highlighting his knowledge and authority in the field.<ref>{{cite web |title=Kā tam vajadzētu būt |url=https://forbesbaltics.com/lv/forbeslife/raksts/ka-tam-vajadzetu-but |website=forbesbaltics.com |accessdate=7 December 2023}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |title=Jaunās ēras līderība |url=https://forbesbaltics.com/lv/viedokli/raksts/jaunas-eras-lideriba |website=forbesbaltics.com |accessdate=7 December 2023}}</ref><br />
<br />
In addition to being a recognized business consultant, market researcher, and author, Kaplan is also a public speaker, contributing his insights at various industry conferences and seminars.<ref>{{cite web |title=Что такое творческий подход в бизнесе |url=https://uprav.ru/blog/tvorcheskiy-podkhod-v-biznese/ |website=uprav.ru |accessdate=7 December 2023 |language=ru}}</ref> He has been cited by several publications and media outlets, including US Reporter, CEO World, LA Weekly, Digital Journal, MSN, Khaleej Times, and London Insider. He is also a columnist for Forbes Latvia Magazine.<ref>{{cite web |title=Uzņēmēji izput, jo nespēj noteikt, kādu problēmu viņi risina |url=https://forbesbaltics.com/lv/intervijas/raksts/uznemeji-izput-jo-nespej-noteikt-kadu-problemu-vini-risina |website=forbesbaltics.com |accessdate=7 December 2023}}</ref><br />
