Overview
Building futures literacy with tools like futures wheels, red teaming, and adaptive roadmapping
The future doesn’t arrive in a straight line—and yet most strategies assume it will. This course helps organisations break out of short-termism and reactive planning by building the capacity to think in scenarios, anticipate disruptions, and prepare for multiple plausible futures.
Participants will learn structured foresight tools used by top strategic units around the world—futures wheels, cross-impact matrices, red teaming, wildcard analysis—and apply them to challenges in their own domain. The emphasis is on practical foresight: useful, testable, adaptive models of the future that support better decisions today.
In a world defined by volatility and surprise, the ability to forecast is limited. But the ability to prepare? That’s teachable.
