When the future begins : a guide to long-term thinking
Lindkvist, Magnus
When the future begins : a guide to long-term thinking Lindkvist, Magnus - London LID Publishing 2013 - 159 p.
Long‐term thinking and planning is such an ingrained part of
everyday life that we tend either not to see it or merely take it
for granted. From pensions, retirement, holiday planning,
marriage (or divorce) to corporate strategy and choosing the
right school for our kids – the assumptions we make about
tomorrow tend to be sketchy at best!
Why do we so often underplay such important future plans in our
lives? One of the main reasons is that we have never been given
the right tools with which to think and plan ahead. Futurology –
the art of thinking ahead – has often been relegated to science
fiction writers and witch doctors. In fact, it's a tool that can
actually help us understand and plan for a better future for
ourselves. This book, by a leading futurologist, presents the
practical tools of long‐term thinking and planning to the everyday
situations that we all face.
