about this future of work workshop
An expert-led 2 hr session that transports your team into your future.
We’ve all learned that the world can change with a tweet. In a time of widespread uncertainty — and possibility — creativity is the foundation of every successful business.
With creativity, business leaders can turn buzzwords like flexibility, resilience, and innovation from empty promises into practical outcomes.
How? That’s exactly what you’ll learn in this 2 hr leadership workshop, specifically designed for organizations dipping their toes into the Future of Work. Instead of lectures or theories, you’ll get your hands dirty by actually using your leadership team’s real creativity to “time travel” into the future: experimenting, having fun, and returning with important insights that can guide your real, practical strategic planning.
Along the way, you’ll practice a cutting-edge tool called Backcasting — used by innovative organizations like NASA to achieve the impossible.
