ABSTRACT
Seeing Beyond the Horizon
Many corporations and organizations use strategic foresight to help anticipate and drive change. Perhaps the most important practice in foresight is horizon scanning, the ability to identify signs of change in different aspects and time horizons. Learn how to avoid black swan events (rare events we have not envisioned) and determine where to best apply resources to create desired futures.
