The Trends and Foresight Academy Masterclass Series 2 : Full Academy (24 modules)

In Series 1, we explained the basic techniques and frameworks favoured by strategic foresight professionals. Today, in this series, we take a more in-depth, exploratory and co-iterative look at forecasting as a core discipline for tackling the many mega-threats we face on a daily basis. 

Here, we focus on the world of innovation, entrepreneurship and organisational disruption where success is constantly hampered by short-term thinking and knee-jerk solutions. 

But to succeed and thrive in this new age of uncertainty, long-view foresight approaches are needed, and a sense of preparedness built on inclusivity, diversity and openness is demanded and required. 

To do this, we need to utilise what we learned in Series 1 – the how of forecasting – and combine this with the why of forecasting, in terms of answering those bigger existential questions we increasingly face as forecasters, innovators and decision-makers.
