Mapping the Future

1

How can you better envision the future? The Institute for Global Futures has developed a new approach to meeting this challenge. Mapping the Future is a unique planning and real-time strategic process offered by the Institute for Global Futures. Mapping the Future gives an organization a window on their business direction by looking at the interactive relationships among different trends like: population, technology, energy and health care.

 

 

 

Mapping the Future enables leaders to get a handle on what the possible and preferred futures are for their organization and their marketplace. This process often reveals new visions of what is possible for products, markets and customers. New possibilities emerge. Mapping the Future goes beyond scenario planning and market research and is grounded in better understanding customer's future needs and population, technology, economic, business and social drivers.

 

Mapping the Future takes a systems-approach to strategy formulation. It is made up of a variety of interactions and an analysis of your organization, your customers and your marketplace. Sessions can be limited to quick, one day projects or year long engagements based on objectives.
