Capability building

We help organisations to increase their own insights and foresights capabilities by building foresighting and exploration processes and developing more agile and engaging future-oriented strategy processes.

We have a long experience of working with senior leadership and boards and are sensitive to different corporate cultures.

Focusing on being people-centred and action-oriented, developing processes, content and tools that are well-adapted to fast-moving, diverse, business environments.

We encourage early project ownership to ensure that the work will have impacts on the business activities, creating a higher probability of landing the development process in action.
