Four-Step Foresight
Imagine, lead, learn and fix your way to the future
Discover the neuroscience behind the brain’s ‘future-think’ to strategically manage change from the unwanted to the preferred.
Four-Step Foresight reveals how the brain thinks about the future and how we can utilise this knowledge to successfully plan for change. It reframes the future in terms of the relationship between brain time (our objective neurobiological reality) and mind time (our subjective mental reality) as we consciously imagine a better future, lead ourselves there, learn as we progress and finally fix our problems in the present.
Since thinking about the future (or foresight) is a uniquely individual capacity, the focus of Four-Step Foresight is on the individual (whether a leader or follower) in the first instance and the collective (whether an organisation or team) in the second. By developing the individual’s foresight capability, the collective is in a better position to negotiate continuous change successfully.
