Workshop Scenario
"Learning from Emerging Future: Shifting to Innovative Thinking"
Introduction
13:00-13:30
13:00-13:30
Setting the Context
The facilitators introduce themselves, explain the purpose of the 3-hour workshop, outline the format and schedule. Ask the questions to connect with the audience. The introduction also includes the description of core principles of our philosophy of working with clients: "Living in a VUCA world", "Collaboration and Innovation", "Learning from Emerging Future'' .
Part 1. "Learning from the Past"
This activity focuses on exploring the different views of the Company to get a shared common platform and understanding of the story. The storytelling can be about important eras, events and experiences that have contributed to where the organization is today. Exploring these events together is a way to include everyone and create an understanding of where everybody is coming from. To listen and trying to understand others' point of view leads to openness which is a prerequisite for trust.

All Group
  1. All participants place themselves somewhere on the line according to how long they have been an employee in the Company. They talk amongst themselves to figure out who should be where.
  2. We divide the timeline into 10 clusters of appr 15 people each. The clusters will discuss for 5-10 minutes among themselves to identify what was in focus in the organisation at that time and what the leadership (or other aspects, to be discussed before the event) was like when they entered into the Company?
  3. Each group discuss and captures in Mentimetr or flipchart paper:
  • Are there any themes through our picture of the organisation's history?
  • What have we learned about the Company and each other?

Part 2. "Learning from Emerging Future"
The ability to shift from reacting against the past to leaning into and presencing an emerging future is probably the single most important capacity today. It is a capacity that is critical in situations of disruptive change, not only for institutions and systems, but also for teams and individuals.
