Tiivistelmä
The future is not predictable but is created by individual choices and actions. There is no single future, but there are many possible alternatives depending on the circumstances and the interests of those who are working for the future, consciously or unconsciously.
This workbook summarizes the foresight process and the tools that are useful in different phases of it. For the readers we point out that foresight is a multisided process and offers lot of opportunities for application in practice. This workbook is a result and a summary of the long-lasting development work which Corporate Futurist Tarja Meristö started in the late 1970s and developed it furher during six decades both in theory and in practise. The writers of the book have worked together with dozens of foresight projects during last 20 years in different business fields.
This book provides a set of working sheets with practical examples from sustainable business to apply foresight in practise. It is good to have a team to discuss things and views together to get a broader view to the future. Working as the team will also bring commitment to use the results when having decision makers responsible for the actions as team members, too. We wish you a fruitful journey into the future!
