Keynote #5
The art of
future thinking
Learn how to think like a futurist
If knowing the future is the ultimate competitive advantage then being able to think like a futurist is one of the most important business skills of the modern age. And not only that, in an era defined by increasing uncertainty and rapid change, futurism is the only real antidote to the epidemic levels of short-term
thinking.
In this session Simon Waller shows you how futurists are trained to recognise trends, uncover risks and identify opportunities by thinking differently about the future. With nearly two decades of work as a futurist Simon will take you and your audience through the mindsets and techniques that he and other futurists use to develop, understand and engage others in their visions of what happens next.
Also delivered in a longer workshop format this keynote is also ideal for upskilling leaders as part of a board retreat, team offsite or strategy day.
