Are you caught in the headlights of complexity? Struggling to see beyond the immediate horizon, or reliably identify emerging trends? With so many pressing problems, it can sometimes seem counterintuitive to focus on the future. Yet productive futures work is not some far-off fantasy experiment. It is a strategic investment in time, collaboration and understanding that will underpin transformative decision-making today.
For over a decade, the Royal College of Art has been a leader in design futures research and practice, and today offers a one-year MDes in Design Futures. Now we are looking to create more opportunities with this Futures Through Design short course. This in-person, intensive three-day experience is designed for organisational leaders, entrepreneurs, professionals and high-performing recent graduates who are seeking to transform strategic uncertainty into innovative opportunity. Participants will learn advanced design methodologies to anticipate, map, and use complex future scenarios to affect change across your organisation, industry sector or community.
Through hands-on engagement with futures thinking tools and techniques, you will develop new approaches to strategic innovation that can be immediately applied in your professional context.
