Future Exploration
Explore the future to map & anticipate trends, trend breaks & transitions
Identify & think through the forces that shape & can shake up the future
Anticipating structural change is essential to create the future
The future is different from today. Over time trends, trend breaks and transitions manifest themselves and change the world, industries and markets we are part of. Success depends foremost on anticipating and seeing structural change when it happens and well before it accelerates. Exploring the future and thinking through different directions in which critical driving forces can develop is essential to avoid unpleasant surprises and, at the same time, identify attractive opportunities well before others do.
@FairSights we use future mapping and scenario planning & analysis to identify and think through the key driving forces that shape and may firmly shake up the future. It opens the way for organisations to discover attractive opportunities well before others do and develop winning strategies to take advantage of the best options. Future scenarios are also a valuable tool to design new, innovative business models and can be customised to create challenging ‘windtunnels’ for crash-testing them.
All change offers opportunities for innovation
Exploring the future comes in all shapes and sizes depending on the purpose at hand. We use highly engaging, participative as well as analytical approaches to select and craft unique scenarios that meet a range of design criteria. The scenario exercises we design and facilitate range from one or two days to explore new themes or reinforce business plans up to projects of more than a full year to develop corporate, divisional and investment strategies.​
