BUSI 3740U – Introduction to Strategic Foresight Introduction to Strategic Foresight focuses on methods for the development of strategic proposals in the private, public, voluntary or not-for-profit sectors. Foresight is the ability to see developments before they become trends, to recognize patterns before they emerge, and to grasp the features of social currents that are likely to have an impact in future environments. Students will learn about time-tested strategic foresight methods to gather and develop critical knowledge, guide proactive policy, guide and enable present-day decisions, and shape strategic plans and partnerships. Students will learn how to frame future projects, conduct horizon scanning, analyze the impact of trends and identify drivers, confront critical uncertainties and methodically develop scenarios. The course also provides tools to assess scenarios and develop concepts into capabilities for organizations.
