Hub Foresight Process February – May 2013 Purpose Success Structure Collaboration Process
Copyright: Joseph Voros
Strategic Foresight Remember, foresight is a normal
capacity of the human mind. In organisations, the challenge is to take
it from being an implicit unconscious process taking place in a single mind to being an explicit conscious process taking place in many minds.
In other words, from implicit & unconscious to explicit & conscious and from individual to collective.
Collaborative, Open Foresight
"Open Foresight is a process for analysing complex issues in an open and collaborative way, and to raise the bar on public discourse and forward-focused critical thinking.
It draws on well-established methodologies from the Futures Studies field, principles from design thinking, and visual communication tools to create a framework for building forecasts and scenarios."
