Strategic & Creative Foresight
Helping organisations look for signals within and outside their field of expertise, using divergent thinking to generate challenging visions for useful futures. The learnings from these speculated futures can be backcast into roadmaps, illustrated through design fiction projects, to inform actionable strategies and communication efforts.
Collaborative Futuring
Leading experiential worldbuilding workshops and collective imagination sessions with teams to identify points of convergence or divergence between individual visions, and resolve them by building collaboratively-built and collectively-owned futures. This promotes consensus in radical new ideas rather than compromise by averaging current expectations.
Speculative Provotypes
Challenging current visions through radical design fiction pieces that question both general and industry-specific innovation practices, relocating the debate away from "what if" and toward "what now". This process helps proactively explore the potential implications and trade-offs of different paths of change, and is therefore useful as a strategic thinking and planning tool.
Fictional Presentations
Giving a special moment for speculative provotypes to exist by pitching them as make-believe projects, discussing details of their immediate or short-term implementation instead of questioning their feasibility. Such interventions invite audiences to suspend disbelief, and have the potential to raise and debate important questions in isolation from their usual context.
Futures Literacy Coaching
Assisting teams with developing their own futures-centered practice by presenting tools and references for building a routine around creative foresight, collective imagination, and speculative design. Doing so can help teams overcome problems due to a deficit of coherent and shared vision, and let their member innovate and thrive in the professional environment.
