FutureFWD [“Future Forward”] is the new, deeply immersive learning program from the team at be radical; specifically designed to help business leaders and their organizations understand, contextualize and navigate the future.
The FutureFWD two-day live in-person OR seven module/16-hours live online virtual learning journey delves into the disruptive implications of emerging technologies and convergent economic and social trends, whilst enabling leaders to leverage these trends and realize new opportunities. Armed with unique insights, frameworks and a practical toolbox for future thinking and leading in complex times, participants leave the program inspired, empowered and ready to create a radically new future.
Key Highlights:
The program’s instructional design is different from typical corporate workshops or design sprints. Instead it’s designed based on our 4 E Methodology
Experiential: Most people learn best through doing. So don’t expect to be “talked at”, passively absorbing a firehose of lecture content. Participants actually participate in the dialogue and learn through action, collaboration and reflection.
Example-Based: Everything offered is highly practical. Researched examples and case studies from our work with leaders are woven into the curriculum. Participants get messy and do the real work of applying new perspectives to their unique visions and challenges.
Edgy: While achieving escape velocity may feel jarring or bumpy at times, it’s essential for developing into a successful exponential leader. Prepare to be nudged out of your comfort zone and into a state of productive disequilibrium.
Embodied: Great leaders are not disembodied heads. Emotional intelligence (EQ) plays as important a role as intelligence (if not more so) in creating and accelerating future readiness. The most effective future leaders will be the most integrated.
Utilizing proven, robust and deeply engaging interactive learning technology, shared workspaces, small-group breakout work and many other digital tools and techniques, FutureFWD Digital Edition is a one-of-a-kind learning journey based on the same 4E Methodology as our in-person program. By combining the learning objectives and outcomes of FutureFWD with the benefits of a live online experience, FutureFWD Digital Edition empowers distributed leaders and teams to convene anywhere and leverage today’s best learning tools to better understand, contextualize and navigate tomorrow.
Specific Benefits of the Digital Edition:
Navin Valrani, CEO, Arcadia Education
“In order to be able to make well-informed strategic choices, it is critical that leaders have an eye on how current trends will play out over the next fifty years. This program gives us a real insight on future trends and how to develop the mindset to be able to spot opportunities that will arise from them. It is a must do for organizational leaders.”
Stacey Brewer, CEO, eAdvance
“An enlightening masterclass on how new technologies and digital is impacting the future of business. As a natural skeptic, I was concerned the program would leave me with more questions than answers. In fact FutureFWD was practical, informative and very empowering. I left with the abilities to 'drive' into the future as opposed to be a passenger along for the ride. Thank you!”
Remo Siciliano, Managing Director, Immersant
“Jeffery and Pascal facilitated a two-day program which I could only describe as phenomenal. FutureFWD left me with a clear understanding of what I need to do, how to put it into practice and a solid foundation to start from. It was the most valuable two days I’ve had, changing the way I think about the future and how I engage with it.”
Abdulla Al Ashram, Acting Group CEO, Emirates Post Group
“The course was an absolute eye-opener. It gave me a lot of ideas on challenging the status quo (linear thinking models) and using exponential frameworks to look at businesses and leadership. The content and discussion were a revelation to me. I took home case studies, and practical and actionable insights on designing the structure and culture of my own organization.”
Sithembiso Khumalo, Co-Founder, Lepsta
“This programme has been profoundly impactful to me and my business. Until now I thought I had the whole ‘Innovation & Disruption’ thing pretty covered, but I've since identified so many gaps in my thinking. Even though this was about preparing for the future, Jeffrey and Pascal did a great job of distilling everything down into actionable insights. Network expansion is the cherry on top. I highly recommend it.”
The two full-day / OR Seven Modules/16 hours FutureFWD Program will cover unique insights, frameworks, and a practical toolbox for future thinking.
