1 Introducing Foresight Alliance See What s Possible February 2016
2 Foresight Alliance is a rigorous, crea5ve, futures-focused consul5ng firm. We help our clients consider various ways the future might unfold and what they need to do now to an=cipate and shape it. Our foresight methods deliver potent new business opportuni=es, more robust strategies, and wiser decisions. And our recurring engagements tes=fy to our success at making knowledge about the future relevant and valuable for our clients Fortune 500 companies, government agencies, and large nonprofits. What sets us apart? We customize our services to the needs of the client. We don t sell canned processes. We are responsive and nimble. We work closely with our clients throughout each engagement. Helping our clients see the business implica5ons of our work together especially in light of their unique circumstances is the end goal of every project. We provide a team of seasoned foresight professionals with a range of viewpoints and experience. We offer excellent value. 2
3 We help our clients see what s possible. We have found that despite a rich diversity of project scales and client interests, our clients usually face a common problem: how to understand and act in the face of an uncertain and complex future. Our prac=ced approach to foresight begins by iden7fying and organizing the relevant forces of change uncovering and codifying the drivers, trends, and emerging innova=ons that are likely to influence the future. This process brings comprehensible order to the elements of change enabling us to synthesize broad and complex opera=ng environments into a manageable intellectual framework tailored to our clients unique needs allowing them to more deeply understand their present, what s changing it, and what they need to do to shape their preferred future. We provide concepts that our clients can use as a way to organize their thoughts about the future, and a vocabulary they can deploy for implemen=ng future strategy. Through this holis=c yet targeted approach, we help expand our clients capacity to see what's possible. 3
4 What is foresight? The first thing to know about futurists is that we are not predic5ng the future the future does not exist as a single outcome. Rather, we help our clients understand the forces of change that are ac=ve today social, economic, technological, etc.; what is driving these changes, and how they will play out over a defined period of =me. We work with our clients to explore a range of futures, from wildly improbably to extremely conven=onal, so they can have a beser understanding of the challenges and opportuni=es Result: our clients gain advance warning that enables them to seize opportuni=es and avoid problems and threats. 4
5 Why foresight? Developing foresight an understanding of the possible ways the future may unfold is a valuable first step in both strategy and innova5on. Futurists explore broadly providing peripheral vision and synthesizing informa=on from disparate areas. Futurists go beyond what people are thinking to the factors that may change their thinking. Foresight-infused strategy is more informed and proac=ve. Foresight can iden=fy white space and poten=al new opportuni=es. Foresight is best developed as a collabora=ve process. 5
6 Recent highlights from our team s porfolio of foresight experience The Futures of Work, a year-long study of global forecasts for work and workers that was published in 2016 with support from The Rockefeller Founda=on, was widely shared and commented upon and stands as a significant contribu=on to the global debate on this urgent topic. Mul=ple foresight and innova=on projects for a Fortune 500 consumer products company yielded innova=ve product pla[orms currently being explored internally. In 2012 the client established a new business unit based in large part on our foresight work. A major report for the US Grains Council, Food2040, has been lauded for its insigh[ul and provoca=ve look at food and agriculture futures in major East Asian markets through Image: -=Bruce Berrien=- (Flickr) 6

The second project, IRI2038, was for the Industrial Research Ins=tute and asked what research and technology management might look like 25 years in the future Both studies are highly regarded and I would definitely work with [the Foresight Alliance] team again. Vicky Yobp, American Industrial Hygiene Associa5on: Thank you for your strong interest and enthusiasm during the project. Your approach and deliverables were exactly what we needed to iden=fy a range of strategic opportuni=es. We would welcome the chance to work together again should the opportunity arise. 11

14 Appendix: What is foresight? 14
15 There are three futures perspec5ves. The expected future: where we are headed. The expected future is the logical result of the momentum of present trends. The alterna5ve futures: what might happen instead. Alternate futures are the outcome of various conangencies. The preferred future(s): what we want to happen. The preferred future is the result of agency of vision, goals, and plans. We open tell our clients that they should work to a preferred future, be prepared for an alterna=ve future, and avoid the thinking that traps you in an expected future.

17 Exploring what s possible: What does a typical futures project look like? Generally we start with an environmental scan research into ideas, trends, weak signals, and emerging issues within the scope defined by the client. As we cluster these trends and weak signals, large, overarching ideas about the topic begin to emerge. The objec=ve is to separate signal from noise, to dis=ll a lengthy list of items down to a manageable set of foresights supported by a broad research base. From these clusters of trends we are able to describe possible futures in the form of forecasts, hypotheses, scenarios, vigneses, or personas. Crucially, we then iden=fy implica5ons what these possible futures will mean for the organiza=on, its customers, and its offerings. Finally, we help our clients move from foresight to applica=on most open to strategy development or innova5on.
