Future-Fluent

Anyone who has visited a foreign place can relate how disorienting it is to lack a command of the local language. To orient ourselves within the human environment and operate effectively in our modern world, we must be able to communicate.
Organizations have languages too, and they also find themselves at a loss when they don't have the language they need for the situation at hand. Future-Fluent: How Organizations Use Foresight to Thrive in Turbulent Times makes a compelling case for the modern discipline of foresight as the must-have institutional language in today's increasingly volatile, uncertain, complex, and ambiguous landscape.
