Using strategic foresight to anticipate the future

We help you anticipate the emerging issues that could impact your business. Enabling you to be agile and responsive in the face of disruption.

We use a structured and practical approach to strategic foresight to help you look beyond current expectations and explore a broad range of possible, plausible and preferable futures and their implications for your current strategy.

Without strategic foresight, leaders can miss opportunities to improve or unintentionally close routes to creating value.

Strategic foresight approaches to help secure your future:

  • Horizon Scanning

  • Scenario Planning

  • Vision Development

Horizon Scanning

Horizon Scanning is the systematic exploration of potential threats, risks, emerging issues and opportunities for your business. By taking a systematic approach to what’s on the horizon, you can get ahead of any issue.

Scenario Planning

Generating scenarios of plausible futures allows you to rehearse the implications of external events on your business. It’s a robust approach for testing your strategy and developing contingency plans that will help you be agile and responsive under changing circumstances.

Vision Development

Visioning is about imagining and then creating the future you want. A great vision boldly points to a future destination and a clear picture of success. It stretches you, motivates your people and engages your stakeholder community. We can help you create it.

We gained a clearer view of what it means to be a team; how to work together, the expectations and ambitions we have, and clarity on how they could be met. It was powerful to do that work together.

Lead

Developing executive capacity to lead adaptive organisations

The disruptors facing business today are too challenging for your executive leaders’ primary focus to be day-to-day execution.

Yet too many executive teams fail to balance their functional leadership: a focus on execution – with enterprise leadership: ensuring the organisation adapts in our new world.

And so often the relationships between executive leaders are characterised more by competition than collaboration.

We can help transform the impact and effectiveness of your ExCo.
