We find ourselves at a moment in time when an increasingly complex state of the world – and our place within it – makes an orientation towards the future not only relevant, but essential. Today, no future is improbable, which is why the unanticipated white space – the void of unknown unknowns – must be investigated, considered and discussed at all levels of an organization.
From climate change and economic instability to rising inequality and the fragility of democratic institutions, we face a panoply of uncertainties. For too long major decision makers have largely treated the future as a matter of business modeling, an engineering problem, some sort of sexy vision exercise, or savvy marketing campaign to foment anticipation around future products. What we need are alternative frameworks or mindsets for decision making that consider solutions along with their risks and implications, while incorporating a diversity of both disciplinary and human viewpoints.
Nacházíme se v době, kdy stále složitější stav světa – a našeho místa v něm – činí orientaci na budoucnost nejen relevantní, ale i nezbytnou. Dnes není žádná budoucnost nepravděpodobná, a proto je nutné neočekávaný bílý prostor – prázdnotu neznámých neznámých – zkoumat, zvažovat a diskutovat na všech úrovních organizace.
Od změny klimatu a ekonomické nestability až po rostoucí nerovnost a křehkost demokratických institucí čelíme celé řadě nejistot. Příliš dlouho hlavní osoby s rozhodovací pravomocí považovaly budoucnost za záležitost obchodního modelování, inženýrský problém, jakési cvičení s vizí nebo chytrou marketingovou kampaň, která má podnítit očekávání ohledně budoucích produktů. Potřebujeme alternativní rámce nebo způsoby rozhodování, které zohledňují řešení spolu s jejich riziky a důsledky a zároveň zahrnují rozmanitost disciplinárních i lidských hledisek.
