- You know the best way to predict the future? It's to create it. And you want to know how to do that? Create a futures advisory board. This is a total game changer, and you're going to love it. Imagine having the most seasoned experts and innovative minds from diverse industries guiding your strategic decisions. People working on new technologies, offbeat research projects in emerging markets. They're going to help you anticipate trends, challenges, and keep your organization ahead of the curve, which is what you want. Now, with just a little Googling, you're going to be completely surprised at how many innovative thinkers are working on tomorrow, today, and they're happy to be asked to share their expertise. You want some quick advice? Make it a one-on-one virtual session. Or you want to make more long-term impact? Make it a regular practice with quarterly meetings with the board. Creating a futures advisory board is meant to future proof your organization and your strategy to create longer lasting success with confidence. You'll not only enhance your ability to be resilient, but you're going to ensure that your strategies are proactive, not reactive and better shaped with the best people in mind.
