课程概述

For many people, the future comes as a surprise – or even a shock. But with strong forecasting skills, YOU can avoid future shock. You can adapt faster, and become better prepared to benefit from change. In this course, you’ll build your future forecasting skills. You'll learn how to turn groups of "signals" (clues about the future) and "drivers" (global forces that influence the direction of change) into compelling future forecasts. Forecasts help you discover new possibilities and opportunities for yourself, your company, or any community you want to inspire to make a better future. You'll also learn how to write future scenarios. Scenarios take forecasts one step further. They spark imagination and tell a story about what might happen if a forecast comes true. Scenarios help you evaluate: Is this a future I'm ready for? Is this a future I want? Leading futurists from the Institute for the Future will show you exactly how it's done. They'll share with you the forecasts and scenarios they’re most excited about right now, and walk you through the key steps they took to create them. Then, it's your turn! You'll create a forecast and a scenario on any future topic you choose. How will you benefit from taking this course? With strong forecasting skills, you'll get better at seeing the future before it happens. You'll be ready to consider possibilities that others never see coming or refuse to accept. You'll be able to help others prepare for and adapt to the future. You can decide which futures you want to make more likely, and which futures you want to prevent. Many thanks to the Enlight Foundation and the Enlight Collaborative, which provided a grant to support the creation of this course....

This course has given me a new skill of how to be constantly scanning my environment for signals of change that allow us to forecast what is likely to happen in the future.

Very useful and well organised. As the course is about future forecasting, however, it would be good to update the readings and use cases on a regular basis. The course is already 5 years old so I found it hard to do some of the assignments without simply typing up what's happening today or has already happened since the course launched.

Great, practical course. So interesting and useful to see the forecasts for 2021 that were created ten years earlier. That really helped illustrate how this process is meant to work. I still find the emphasis on technology a bit heavy. It's certainly a major driver of change, but not the only one!

I really enjoyed the course incl video, reading material and different examples for creating scenarios. If I had one wish to change something it would be the peer-to-peer grading of assignments, which is not really helpful.

It was good course, perhaps could have expected a bit more insight, in depth knowledge about this subject, but overall cannot complain, the explanations from the host/leder /coach were very clear.

Really interesting course, disadvantages of it every week there is a peer review not everyone gave you feedback on your work. Material is insightful and cover different areas.
