Foresight

This session introduces you to the power of foresight and shows you how foresight can be carefully cultivated by re-educating your attention. Foresight is the ability to be finely tuned in to the undercurrents of events and happenings all around us. It involves the cultivated ability to see what is unseen or overlooked. The ability to 'read', or 'interpret’ the undercurrents and the changing moods of markets, popular opinions, customers, and employees are vital capabilities that no forward-looking individual or business can afford to ignore.

The objectives for today’s session are to:

  • Show the consequences of a lack of foresight
  • Understand why and how we develop perceptual blindness that restricts our capacity for foresight
  • Develop attentional strategies in your daily managing that help cultivate an awareness of the unseen, the obscure and the overlooked
