Building organizational resilience: Lessons from 80 foresight interventions

Lifecycle of your (or your colleague’s) role as the strategist:

  1. Predictor
  2. Scenarist
  3. Integrator
  4. Irritator
  5. Actor

This presentation reports on insights gained from running foresight interventions with 80 firms. This formidable effort, financed by the Danish Industry Foundation, was coined the Danish Resilience Project and led to the production of hundreds of scenarios. Some lessons are only obvious after the intensive, high-frequency experience implementing foresight, and 5 of the takeaways are recounted in this presentation.

These insights are applicable for strategists working to bolster organizational resilience, and help you to better expect the unexpected when dealing with foresight.
