KEYNOTE FORESIGHT INNOVATION

Translate Foresight Insights into Innovation

Technological, ecological, political and economic changes appear to be accelerating. We live in an era of transitions and transformations, or even a transition of era.

In this era of changes, opportunities and risks, it is all about foresight, agility and flexibility. This requires a new way of innovating and organizing, a culture of learning, and new forms of knowledge management.

In other words: Foresight Innovation.

As an innovation researcher and futurist, Peter Joosten shows you in an interactive way how you can innovate in a future-oriented manner.

MY EXPERTISE

Beautiful abbreviations such as VUCA (Volatile, Uncertain, Complex, Ambiguous), BANI (Brittle, Anxious, Non-linear, Incomprehensible), RUPT (Rapid, Unpredictable, Paradoxical, Tangled) and even TUNA (Turbulent, Uncertain, Novel, Ambiguous) describe the world we live in now.

How can you prepare an organization or team for this? What does this require from the employees in terms of skills and mindset? What can you do now to be better prepared for the future?

Elements

As an innovation scientist, I will discuss the most relevant elements of Foresight Innovation during the lecture. This includes innovation strategies, knowledge management, the power of experimentation and collaboration in networks.

Focus

Depending on the purpose of the lecture, I adjust the focus. This may involve practical applications, such as concrete actions that participants can start immediately, strategic choices for the direction of the organization, or social dilemmas. In my lectures, I use many concrete examples and working methods.

After the lecture, the audience will go home with a fresh perspective on innovation. The keynote provides ingredients for discussion and practical insights for their own work and life.
