FAQ
Q. What is the difference between 'Foresight' and 'Strategic Foresight'?
A. Foresight
is the ability to think about some time in the future. Most people
have this ability but tend not to think about the future in a
deliberate and in-depth way. Strategic Foresight is a consicous and
deliberate approach to attempting to learn about, consider and explore
potential future developments, in the light of a specific context and
then questioning our assumptions and expectations to see if they are
valid and realistic
Q. What are Human Values?
A. Human
Values are those inherent perspectives of the world that drive our
behaviours. The issue of right and wrong or acceptable behaviour
varies considerably depending on which 'Values lens' you are looking
through. Our work with the Human Values approach is informed by
training with the National Values Centre in the USA and is based on the
Spiral Dynamics model. We've introduced it to some of the largest
corporate and government agencies and smaller firms and NGO's in
Australia and beyond. There's plenty that has been written about the
model and its applications and successes are exceptional
Q. How does your approach to Innovation differ from any others?
A. Good
question - we hold a much higher expectation for innovation than many
others who see almost any creative endeavour as 'innovative'. Whilst
connected, we do not believe that creativity and innovation are the
same. Further we help organisations overcome the barriers that prevent
them from being more innovative. But first, you have to know how to
find those barriers - that's where we come in!
