Description:

The Foresight Guideseeks to be the world’s best introduction to two things:1. General futures thinking 2. Professional foresight practice. It covers key habits, skills, specialties, methods, models, frameworks, goals, and values that professionals use to improve personal and organizational foresight. It also explores key megatrends in 21st century futures, and strategies for creating more adaptive societal and global futures. It is written from an evidence-based, big picture, acceleration-aware, and evo-devo perspective.A draft version of the Guideis free online atForesightGuide.com. A print version will arrive on Amazon in Fall 2020.Newsletter of Foresight University. Brief items to grow personal, organizational, societal, global, and universal foresight and adaptiveness in this amazing, disruptive, ever-accelerating world. SUBSCRIBE8,900 subscribers in Mar 2020. Join the network! Back Issues.Other ProjectsThe Science of Performance Curves,an EDU Workshop, is presently in the planning stage. This Workshop will explore:- Whatexplains the differential rates of acceleration in our technology performance curves (computing, storage, bandwidth, energy production, etc.) as documented inPerformance Curve Databases?- The greatest marginal gains in technological performance are found in systems where the rates of miniaturization and virtualizationare the fastest. Why is this so? What are its key business, policy, and social implications?- Can we develop better predictive theories for the growth and future of technology performance curves?EDU is ASF’s international communityof scholars and philosophers exploring evolutionary and developmental processes in complex adaptive systems. Interested in learning and advancing the science and systems theory of complexity, adaptation, and change? What is predictable in complex systems? What is accelerating change? Where and why does it occur? How do we differentiate between predictable and unpredictable processes in the universe and its subsystems? Join us to discuss these critical topics of research, policy, and foresight.1.Can ASF help your organization with consulting, talks, reports, seminars, or workshops? See ourServicespage.2.Looking for a good wiki directory of global foresight? VisitGlobal Foresight.org, ASF's wiki directory of Networks, Events, Programs, People, Orgs, and Resources for emerging global foresight culture.3.Desire a credential in foresight work? SeeForesight Graduate Programs - Global List, ASF's list of top Primary and Secondary graduate programs in professional foresight. Consider these if you want interdisciplinary training in thinking about issues of global progress and accelerating change.4.Are you a foresight student, educator, researcher, employer, alum, or advocate? Join theForesight Education and Research Network (FERNweb.org), a global community of foresight students, researchers, educators (K-12, university, professional) and employers working on projects to advance foresight education and research.5.Like to meet other foresighted folks in your local community? Start aFuture Salon, on your own or with a co-moderator. Invite interesting local thinkers to give free talks on future-oriented topics once a month (or less), and go to dinner afterward for more conversation. Grow your network of change- and innovation-oriented friends!ARCHIVESArticles- Articles and Books by ASF President John Smart.Presentations- Audio, Video, and Slide presentations by ASF President John Smart.Press ReleasesButtons/Banners LogosPast ASF CONFERENCESEvolution, Development, and Complexity 2017: Evolutionary and developmental models of societal change.
