The people, groups and organisations that we work with know that change is constant, are curious about possible futures, and want to use the future to shape the present. Does that describe you?

Foresight is not about predicting the future. As the saying goes: forewarned is forearmed. Foresight is about identifying possible futures, minimising risk and surprise, spotting opportunities, and working out what role you have in shaping the future.
