Future Thinking Canvas

How to prepare for your un-thinkable Futures?
Strategy is all about making choices for the Future. We often assume that the world remains the same, but in reality, that is never the case. Changes can be obvious and predictable, but there are also Futures that are unexpected or subtle. In order to create a mind-set that prepares you for all possible Future scenarios, Spark Works developed the Future Thinking Canvas.
The Canvas will stimulate you to think differently and explore your possible Futures in a structured way. It provides a way to prepare you for the un-thinkable challenges of your tomorrow and act with a positive attitude towards them.
