1.3.1 Purpose of strategic foresight

Purpose of strategic foresight

Wright et al. 2013, describe three purposes for LTOF:

Sensibilisation

Acquisition of a sharpened understanding of everyday processes in order to recognize the connections and logical sequences of events and how the future unfolds.

Breaking down previous thought patterns

Challenges to previous ways of thinking can be broken down, allowing previous perceptions to be reinterpreted and employee mindsets to be changed.

Information for decisions

Improving decision-making to provide more holistic information about strategic decision-making processes.
