Social forecasting, future studies; Economic forecasting; Business strategy

This is a practical guide to improved medium-term decision-making for business leaders.

The changes that mark the end of the current historic phase of economic growth mean that it’s increasingly difficult to make decisions. Yet the quality of decisions made by organisations and governments affects us all: decisions made with old paradigm assumptions may not take advantage of opportunities presented by the new, emerging paradigm; they restrict our ability to develop resilient choices.

In The Possibility Wheel, Patricia Lustig and Gill Ringland collate and analyse the trends that underlie the changes that are overturning our economy and society. They provide a clear framework for making sense of what is happening around the world:

presenting evidence from the best sources outlining ‘Forces for Change’ that surround us evaluating the disruptive ‘Threats’ that we face and examining the fracturing social and economic ‘Backbones’ on which we all rely.

Finally, they offer a toolset (the Possibility Wheel) to help senior executives and management teams make informed and resilient choices and strategic decisions. The Possibility Wheel brings the global evidence to play in your locality and organisational context — so you can explore more opportunities, develop resilient choices leading to more robust decisions and enjoy better outcomes.
