• Graeme highlights a brilliant Harvard Business Review article published just two weeks ago by fellow futurist, Prof. Amy Webb. In the article, Amy says: “Which is better? The ability to see the future, or the ability to create and execute the right strategy? There is a clear answer: [both]. Strategy and foresight were once the same discipline. And they should be again.” We couldn’t agree more. Read more here.

If you’d like more information about our Futurist’s Toolkit, the presentations, workshops and resources we have available to help you build strategic foresight and imagination into your people and teams, please contact us and set up an obligation-free chat with one of our team.

• In a world where authenticity often takes a back seat, there’s immense power in embracing who you are professionally. Our latest video by Buhle Dlamini, “Unleash Your Greatness: Embrace Who You Be | The Power of Authenticity,” explores how finding your unique distinction is the key to standing out in your career. (He also had a recent conversation with Jude over at the Future Smart Parent podcast on Raising Greatness using the 5 key points from his Unleashing your Greatness keynote presentation.

A reminder that Buhle will be in South Africa for some of February and March 2024, but his diary is filling up quickly. Chat with us about booking him for his Unleashing Your Greatness keynote.

• Step into the year 2042 with Graeme Codrington in this week’s episode of ThrowForward Thursday! He dives into the heart of capitalism and its often overlooked contradiction with democracy, specifically within the workplace. Could a democratically chosen manager be the key to a stronger, more engaged business?

Graeme believes that this is one of the keys to building the organisation of the future. We hope this video gets you thinking about ways you can change and improve your workplace today. Watch it now.

• Our team is a huge fan of Adam Grant’s book, “Think Again”. Graeme has just dipped into his notes from reading it a few years ago in preparation for a client session on Rethinking and Unlearning, and the practical suggestions are really brilliant. Here are the ten that Graeme is using in his workshop with a client later this week.
