And now, in their new work \u003ci\u003eDesigning the Future\u003c\/i\u003e, they demonstrate how to take the next step: how to apply foresight methods to your life, your work, and your organization. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eDesigning the Future \u003c\/i\u003eisn’t about trying to predict the specifics of tomorrow. That’s impossible. It’s about preparing for possibility today. It explores what it’s like to practice futures thinking in real time, helping you discover what kind of futurist you are: a signal spotter, a systems mapper, a storyteller, or a strategist. Whether you’re a leader, innovator, or curious learner, you’ll build the confidence to see change early and respond with clarity. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe book revisits the Macrohistory and the Ages and Eras Theory, tracing long arcs of civilizational change that include the Ages of Faith, Industry, Machines, Digital, and now the Age of Intelligence.
