The Future Foresight Book of Knowledge balances an orientation towards practice with methodological rigor, containing concrete examples that complement the theoretical concepts. It includes a comprehensive list of resources, mostly available online, so you may pursue your studies and further develop your knowledge.
The Future Foresight Book of Knowledge (FFBOK) – A Foundation Guide – is meant to be used as a reference guide for Future Foresight and includes references to literature, proven widely applied practices and emerging trends. We trust that this Body of Knowledge will enable you to prepare for the future more critically, avoid the trap of past routines, preconceptions, or wishful thinking, and move forward more confidently. It was designed as a tool to help individuals and teams make a difference in their organizations.
ALVA R&C works with organizations to create plausible and strategy-relevant futures – and act upon them. The focus is on Foresight, Scenarios, Innovation, Strategy and Sustainability.
