Due to their unpredictable nature, business leaders and executive teams are unable to prepare for these specific events. However, through innovation, strategising and an open-minded approach, they can restructure their organisation and practices in order to mitigate (or even take advantage of) the impact of such events.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIn \u003cem\u003eFacing Our Futures\u003c\/em\u003e, Nikolas Badminton draws upon his decades of experience as a consultant and futurist to provide readers with the skillset and outlook they need to prepare their organisation, team and themselves for whatever obstacles the future may hold. CEOs, executive teams, government leaders and policymakers need to gain a broader perspective and a firmer grasp on how their relevant industry, society or community is evolving and changing. Once they have acquired this foresight, they need to then discover how to fully harness it – by strengthening their foundations, forecasting and establishing a resilient and adaptable strategy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eFacing Our Futures\u003c\/em\u003e acts as a primer on the value of seeing how bad things can get and the power in imagining these futures.
