We have passed the winter solstice (the photo was the sunset on December 22 as seen from our house), so now the days in the Northern Hemisphere are starting to get longer while those in the South begin to shorten. This also signals that a new year (according to humanity’s rather arbitrary calendar) is about to begin.

Mastering Complexity with the Futurist Toolkit
Langdon Morris
July 01, 2023
Hindsight exposes good and bad strategies, but it’s foresight that matters. But long before the final results are revealed through the course of time there are inevitably long periods of uncertainty and speculation, sleepless nights of wonder, discussion, and worry about the mounting toll of unknowns. To talk of strategy, then, is to talk of potentials and risks, victories and failures, in war, in business, in games, and in life. And to work at strategy design is to engage with insight, guesswork, intuition, and calculation, against a background of those same high stakes risks and rewards. Consequently, choosing the correct strategies, figuring out the nuances of their implementation, and putting them into action is rarely a simple matter. So, we will ask, what should our strategy be for coming up with our strategy? This is where the Futurist Toolkit can be so very helpful, for complexity is our nemesis, and tools which may help us cope with it are entirely welcomed.

The global economy will be transformed, the impacts of radical new technologies will intensify, and so will the damage caused by climate change. The geopolitical situation will continue to be unsettled, with war and the threat of war. And politics nearly everywhere will continue to be highly polarized.
