WHAT WE DO
All of us, organizations, corporations, communities and individuals make decisions that affect our future. In fact, no entity can survive long without tuning its strategy to the future.
We design, organise and deliver sector-based workshops and thought-leadership events to help a broad range of clients (in both the profit and non-profit sector) think about the drivers of change that could impact on their success. We also do futures research that address client needs.
With international development futures as a key focus of our practice, we raise awareness about the major challenges affecting global development assistance practice and their implications.
We help clients think more creatively about the long term future, and to manage risk and uncertainty more effectively.

WE LOVE WHAT WE DO
Our work is tailored to the needs of the client. So because no two situations are identical, no two clients receive the same prescription. We are expert at designing the correct approach and/or selecting the best process tools for your situation. Beginning with an outline of desired goals, we work directly with the client to reach agreement on the scope and content of the project.
