Think Forward: Conversations with Futurists, Innovators and Big Thinkers
What happens when you hold an artifact from a future that doesn't exist yet? A newspaper headline from 2045, a product manual for technology not yet invented, or a social media post from an entirely different world? These aren't just creative exercises—they're powerful tools for making abstract futures tangible. Julian Bleecker, one of the pioneering architects of design fiction, takes us on a fascinating journey through his approach to imagining possible tomorrows. Julian shares his journey from building computers in eighth grade to pioneering design fiction, creating tangible artifacts from imaginary futures that spark meaningful conversations about tomorrow's possibilities. • Discovered a love for technology as a child, building a Xerox 820 computer with an 8-inch floppy drive • Needed two engineering degrees and a PhD to articulate what he'd been chasing—that "whoa cool feeling" of exploring possibilities • Created TBD Catalog, a breakthrough project that materialized possible futures through a product catalog format • Founded Super Seminars as experimental gatherings where no one person is the expert • Describes design fiction as "future archaeology"—retrieving artifacts from possible futures to understand what those worlds might be like • Emphasizes imagination as an evolutionary advantage and essential skill that needs regular exercise • Advocates "imagining harder" as vital for navigating our rapidly changing world • Recommends doing design fiction exercises 2-3 times weekly, 20 minutes each, to build imaginative fitness • Works across disciplines, recently bringing design fiction approaches to policy discussions around AI Find Julian at the following places: His Patreon (SUPPORT HIM!) https://patreon.com/nearfuturelaboratory *** The Patreon includes access to the coolest Discord on the planet.

Think Forward: Conversations with Futurists, Innovators and Big Thinkers
The key to organizational survival lies in embedding foresight deeply into company DNA, creating structures that detect change, understand implications, and adapt accordingly before crises emerge. Futurist Steve Fisher shares practical frameworks for developing this capability, regardless of team size or organizational readiness. • Four organizational models for implementing foresight: Lone Wolf, Dynamic Duo, Special Forces Unit, and Enterprise Transformation • Step-by-step implementation playbook covering environmental scanning, scenario thinking, and strategy connection • Common pitfalls to avoid: academic rabbit holes, crystal ball expectations, shiny object syndrome • Real-world success stories from retail, manufacturing, and financial services • Practical tactics anyone can implement tomorrow, from weekly signal drops to future press releases • DNA integration framework showing progression from basic immune system to full imagination system • Metrics that actually work for measuring foresight success, beyond traditional ROI • Strategies for handling resistance from time horizon skeptics, control freaks, and resource guardians Take the 30-day challenge to start embedding foresight into your organization. Begin with one signal to track, one scenario to explore, or one assumption to challenge. The future belongs to organizations that see it coming, and it's up to you to help develop that vision.

پخش در آینده پخش در آینده لیست ها پسندیدن دوست داشته شدWelcome to episode 132! We sit down with Roger Spitz of the Disruptive Futures Institute. Roger Spitz brings a refreshingly different perspective to the future of business and leadership. As the former global head of Tech M&A who pivoted into professional futures work, Roger's journey represents exactly the kind of transformation he advocates for—bold, purpose-driven, and responsive to a changing world. What sets Roger apart is his holistic approach to disruption. While most futurists focus narrowly on technological innovation, Roger delves into the systemic changes reshaping our entire landscape. His Triple A framework—Anti-fragile, Anticipatory, and Agility—offers a practical operating system for navigating uncertainty that goes beyond standard playbooks. The concept of "meta-eruptions" that Roger introduces challenges conventional thinking about trends and forecasting. As he explains, we're living in a world where "unprecedented" has become the norm, requiring fundamentally different approaches to preparation and response. His global perspective, having lived across nine countries by age 18, combined with his unconventional study of disciplines like improv comedy alongside traditional futures methodology, creates a unique lens for understanding adaptation and resilience. In this fantastic talk, we cover: Developing the Triple A framework: Anti-fragile foundations, Anticipatory thinking, and Agility to reconcile long-term vision with immediate action Understanding "meta-eruptions" as constant, often surprising systemic changes that require a new approach beyond traditional megatrend analysis How global perspective and varied experiences (including studying improv comedy) enhance futures intelligence and adaptability Creating the Disruptive Futures Institute to address the gap between specialized fields and build a new operating system for decision-making Applying futures thinking to complex challenges like climate action and sustainable market transformation Emphasizing relevance as the ultimate test for individuals and organizations in a rapidly changing world Recognizing our agency to create virtuous tipping points even amid accelerating disruption Find Roger Spitz online through LinkedIn, the Disruptive Futures Institute website, or his book "Disrupt with Impact: Achieve Business Success in an Unpredictable World."

Catherine Roy, a designer turned strategic futurist at Thales, reveals that flying taxis and advanced air mobility face substantial social acceptance challenges beyond mere technological hurdles. Her research identified 62 criteria for social acceptability of air taxis, demonstrating the complexity of successfully introducing this transportation mode. We touch upon many things in this episode including: How she transformed into a strategic futurist leading global design networks Research found 62 social acceptability criteria for advanced air mobility versus industry's focus on just 7-8 Urban planners view flying vehicles as extending traffic problems into the air rather than solving mobility issues Capacity limitations make eVTOLs inefficient compared to mass transit (only 0-125 passengers/hour in 2040 projections) Entire infrastructure including vertiports and communication systems would need building from scratch Flying vehicles could increase social stratification between wealthy "skylanders" and ground-dwelling "flatlanders" Future climate priorities may overshadow investments in advanced air mobility infrastructure Innovation requires developing unique perspectives and courage to stand your ground against mainstream thinking Order your copy of SuperShifts: www.bit.ly/supershifts Real Talk About Marketing An Acxiom podcast where we discuss marketing made better, bringing you real...

Drawing from his fascinating journey from anthropology to futures studies, Dunegan shares the moment he discovered a manuscript on "Quantum Politics" that proposed revolutionary ideas about constitutional design based on uncertainty rather than mechanistic balance. This epiphany eventually led him to establish the Governance Futures Lab at the Institute for the Future, where he pushes for nothing less than a renaissance in political system design thinking. Background in anthropology exploring fundamental questions about why people do what they do Discovered futures studies through a manuscript on "Quantum Politics" that proposed redesigning the US Constitution Co-created the Reconstitutional Convention in 2013 to bring together diverse thinkers to redesign political systems Developed experiential futures approaches to make possible tomorrows tangible today Led the Hawaii 2050 project creating immersive experiences of alternative futures Created pandemic simulations years before COVID-19 that explored prioritization of vaccines Founded the Governance Futures Lab at Institute for the Future to support political system design Believes our current governance structures aren't equipped for 21st-century challenge Emphasizes the importance of emotional connection to future possibilities, not just intellectual understanding Advocates for embedding futures thinking throughout our systems rather than treating it as a specialized activity And we find out where the best tacos and food trucks are in Austin, Texas The conversation explores Dunegan's groundbreaking work in experiential futures—creating immersive, tangible experiences that help people feel possible futures rather than just intellectually understand them. From the Hawaii 2050 project that created four radically different versions of Hawaii's future to pandemic simulations developed years before COVID-19, Dunegan demonstrates how making futures visceral can change decision-making in profound ways.

پخش در آینده پخش در آینده لیست ها پسندیدن دوست داشته شدAlex Fergnani takes us on a journey from his beginnings as a martial arts student in Asia to becoming a provocative voice in futures thinking with his groundbreaking approach to foresight wisdom. His upcoming book "The Dao of Foresight" with Penguin represents a fresh approach to teaching foresight concepts through an entertaining narrative set in a fictional world. Following a hero's journey structure, the novel follows a young disciple seeking a master to help save his endangered village. Through this adventure, readers learn foresight techniques while engaging with wisdom from Taoism, Zen Buddhism, and Confucianism. Alex shares the comprehensive world-building process behind the book—creating maps, character backgrounds, and plot structures that form a rich universe accessible to audiences from teenagers to seasoned practitioners. Some highlights from our conversation: Entered futures accidentally after pursuing Asian studies and discovering a Future Studies program in Taiwan Views Kung Fu as the primary influence on his approach to foresight—focusing on rigorous fundamentals, discipline, and systematic processes Created "The Dao of Foresight" as an edutainment novel set in the Land of Pangu Developed a comprehensive world-building process with maps, character backgrounds, and a hero's journey narrative structure Believes the foresight field should first distinguish between futurism (speculation) and foresight (systematic approaches) Pivoting his career toward becoming a "communicator of wisdom" rather than a traditional foresight practitioner His personal revelation that his initial attraction to foresight's ambitious scope was partly compensating for deeper psychological needs offers powerful insight for anyone drawn to futures work. Whether you're curious about alternative approaches to futures thinking or interested in how storytelling can transform complex concepts, this episode offers a thought-provoking blend of Eastern wisdom and foresight practice.

Think Forward: Conversations with Futurists, Innovators and Big Thinkers
Organizational foresight is the key differentiator between companies that merely survive and those that actively shape their future, enabling systematic anticipation of change through expanded thinking across three time horizons. • Foresight isn't corporate fortune-telling—it's a sophisticated navigation system showing multiple routes and spotting opportunities others miss • The three horizons framework balances improving current business (H1: 0-2 years), exploring emerging opportunities (H2: 2-5 years), and reimagining industries (H3: 5-10+ years) • Effective foresight models include centralized teams, hub-and-spoke systems, or distributed capabilities—choose what fits your organization's culture • Start small with approaches like "Future Fridays" or trend newsletters before scaling up • Build a diverse team combining strategic thinkers, researchers, storytellers, and bridge builders • Create a futures-focused culture by integrating foresight into existing processes and making it safe to challenge assumptions • Organizations with mature foresight capabilities achieve 33% higher profitability and 200% higher growth than industry averages • Measure success through learning metrics, process metrics, impact metrics, and value metrics • Begin with a "futures audit" of recent decisions to identify where foresight could add the most value Subscribe to the Think Forward podcast on all major platforms and YouTube under Think Forward Show.
