As I am considering my next project - I am really thinking about what MJ teaches about finding a problem to solve and solve it for a group of people. As I consider what this means, I have been looking for ways to identify and focus upon different groups of people. To this end, I found a few of different ways of identifying large groups of people. Here's a few to get you started - along with a few websites to jump start your brain and get your research flowing.
1) Look for Careers or Professions - people tend to group around different types of tasks or activities. Search for Lists of Top Careers, Careers in Demand, High-Paying Careers, etc.

3) Look for Professional Certifications - people want to make themselves stand out in the particular careers. So, many will pursue specialized knowledge requiring extra education and demonstration of such knowledge. Search for Professional Certification in <CAREER from #1), Professional Certification Exams, Professional Certification Training, etc.
