Futures Skills

Futures Skills focuses on the need to think about the future and how we can influence it. There are two main strands to the Futures Skills approach:

Futures Methods - How we can think about the future and the methods available to do so.

Futures Issues - What the future might be like and considers Why Futures work is important.

"No one can predict the future, but no one can afford to be unprepared to meet whatever does arrive"
Watts Wacker and Jim Taylor

Thinking about the future is easy. We all have plenty of experience of doing it and do it instinctively many times each day. Thinking about, and planning for, the future; arranging a meeting, booking a holiday, or taking on a loan or mortgage, are things we do easily and without worrying. All involve thinking ahead and making commitments for the future.
