In a world where trust has shifted from face-to-face interactions to digital connections, our managing director Melanie Subin reminds us that it is still the cornerstone of any relationship 🤝 Melanie joined Interac Corp.'s Debbie Gamble, ICD.D on "Everyday Trust" to explore how companies, especially in financial services, can effectively use technologies like AI and digital verification to rebuild the sense of trust that once came from knowing your local teller by name.

Foresight FAQ: how do we predict the future? That's an easy one - we don't! Strategic foresight isn't about predicting the future, it's about preparing for any future. We take what what we can know about the future today and combine it with what we can't yet know to develop multiple plausible scenarios. When we get it right, it's not because we have a crystal ball. It's because we've examined the many ways in which technology may interact with the broader societal, cultural and environmental forces in our world. We focus on understanding the complex systems at play and how they might evolve. By mapping out different possibilities, we help uncover new opportunities and navigate uncertainty with clarity 💡 #FutureReady #StrategicForesight

Forget controllers! This gel is playing Atari using pure "brain" power🕹️ Scientists at the University of Reading have developed a polymer hydrogel that can play the classic video game Pong. When connected to the game via electrodes, the gel demonstrated an increasing ability to control the paddle and thus achieved longer rallies – suggesting the hydrogel has a form of memory, despite being far from an artificial brain. Such research into adaptive behavior opens up exciting possibilities for creating "smart" materials that can remember and evolve 🧠 Learn more about this development in the article below. #Science #Tech #SmartMaterials

Our own Sam Jordan took the stage at WorldatWork’s Sales Comp’24 conference in San Francisco last week to explore the cutting-edge impact of #AI on sales compensation and the #futureofwork 🌐 Sam shared insights on how AI-driven clones, #deepfakes and virtual agents will redefine sales, customer interactions and compensation structures. Ultimately, in order to prepare for what's next, leaders and their employees will need to learn how to effectively manage and collaborate with these new technologies. The key to resilience in any organization is taking the right steps today in anticipation of tomorrow 🔑

Foresight FAQ: What's the difference between a #trend and something that is trendy? Trendy things – anything from open-concept offices to Silly Bandz – pop up, grab our attention and disappear just as fast. They’re fads, quick fixes that seem big but don’t stick around long enough to matter. Trends, on the other hand, are built to last. They take time to develop, emerging from bigger forces shaping our world. And while they may not always grow in a straight line, they keep pushing forward. Real trends don’t just make waves – they help you make smarter business decisions that last ✨ #FutureReady #StrategicForesight

Signal Spotlight 🔎: Turns out, there’s more to a name than meets the eye – literally! 👀 New research from Reichman University shows that our faces can gradually evolve to match our names, thanks to the power of social expectations. This discovery is a crucial reminder of how much our identities are shaped by the world around us. For those of us in #strategicforesight, it’s a cue to consider how these subtle influences might play a role in shaping future #trends and behaviors.

Future Today Institute reposted this

Five years ago, I wrote a policy paper for President Biden's Transition Team, advocating for a White House Office of Strategic Foresight. Today, I'm reposting it as it's evident that America's success hinges on long-term planning. The absence of strategic foresight has led to the pressing challenges we face now. I encourage you to read and share this important paper with your network.
