If the past few years have taught us anything, it’s that even our best-laid plans can wither in the face of unanticipated disruptions. How can we do a better job of anticipating the real future, with all its twists and turns? Enter strategic foresight, the systematic process of scanning for changes on the margins before they become major forces in the mainstream. The Center for the Future of Museums recently released a Strategic Foresight toolkit that can teach you the ropes, offering a comprehensive overview of how to use strategic foresight in your planning, plus slide decks, worksheets, and games to exercise your creativity. Join Elizabeth Merritt, AAM’s Vice President of Strategic Foresight and Founding Director of the Center for the Future of Museums, as she leads you through an overview of what strategic foresight is and an exercise to nurture your inner futurist.
