“A Taste of the Future!”
Leading Futurists’s quick input session helps you jump start your efforts in exploring the future. Contact us to arrange a two-hour to a half-day program that can introduce your group to the future and get them thinking about important implications in one intense session.
You can use this mini-workshop as a team builder, as a prep session for change you know will be coming, or as a way to acquire tools and resources for understanding what is coming at you.

LF will provide paper and/or online materials to illustrate and describe tools as needed. See examples here

What your group will get out of their “kick start”
- An introduction to thinking about the future and how external forces and trends are shaping their work and its outcomes
- A “radar screen” of important future issues and trends to keep an eye on
- Practice in using futures tools to enhance their understanding of how to include the future in planning strategies and next steps
- A better, and shared understanding of their own and the group’s assumptions about the future
