Foresight Classics: Earth Might Be Fair

My journey into classic views of the future recently turned up an expected gem – unexpected in the sense of my not being aware of the book. While I confess to not being a great fan of collections of essays, I nonetheless dipped into a 1993 collection of essay titled “Visions of the 21^st Century” edited by Sheila Moorcraft. I’ll just report on one here, for now at least, and it’s the last of the collection: Jay Ogilvy’s “Earth Might Be Fair.” I suppose I shouldn’t be surprised that I really enjoyed it, as I’ve long been a fan of Jay’s work.

To properly set the stage, the editor’s purpose was to collect visions that did not necessarily foretell nor describe, but rather inspired, challenged, and empowered.

Let’s get right to one of the meaty ideas in Jay’s essay that seems so relevant to us today, especially readers of this blog who may be following my ongoing cataloging of notions of the next economy: “one of the problems of a postmodern economy is to find alternatives to the industrious productivity of work as a measure of economic health.” (italics mine). Indeed! A key idea that our next economy conceptualizers are playing with is how does an economy or society work –without work! Jay points that some of our key problems today — hunger and homelessness, for example – are not problems that can be solved by science and technology by are rather human problems. We have enough food, but it’s not evenly distributed. We have enough shelter, or at least materials for shelter, but homeless exists for many other reasons.

He proposes the interesting idea of the “sublimation of the economy.” The industrial economy of material things is giving way to the information economy of ephemeral entertainments and services. One way to interpret this shift, he suggests, is rather than lamenting the lost certainties of the past is a scenario the celebrates the advent of the sublime. It can be a “self-referential, emergent creative lifting by the bootstraps that create meaning where there was none.” It’s new territory!

Playing with this idea of the sublime creating new meaning enables us to play with new scenarios. What if society committed to real educational reform? What if energy companies built a business around negawatts (saving energy) instead of megawatts? What if the sublimation of the economy lightened the burden on the Earth? While it may seem utopic, he notes that “social agendas do change.”

I think he also raises a challenging issue in this vein as we think about the next economy and our preferred vision of the future: “there is no universal understanding of the best way to live a deeply fulfilling human life.” I think this in part explains why we see so many concepts of what’s next – we really don’t know what the ideal ought to be!

There’s much more in this essay, but I don’t want to rewrite it. Once again, as I revisit the classics, I see many cases where futurists have produced truly useful and provocative works about the future that at the very least introduced concepts that paved the way for us in the present to build upon. Jay has clearly done us this service with this inspiring, provocative and relevant vision of the future….almost 25 years old! – Andy Hines

What is a futurist?

Last year my grad assistant Maria Romero produced a series of short videos (none more than two minutes) about the Houston foresight program and the future.

I thought I’d share and talk about the “what is a futurist” clip. As we tell our students from Day One, you will be fairly regularly explaining what a futurist is. Any time you reply to “what do you do” with “futurist,” the inevitable follow-up is “what’s that?” So we have the students practice answering the question in various ways, whether it’s a quick conversation response, an elevator pitch, a written piece, or a stump speech.

My clip fits the elevator speech approach. There are many ways this can be handled – there is no right way. It’s useful to have your own standard pitch, but sometimes it’s fun to play with different approaches.

In the clip, I mention three variations.

The simplest is to suggest that historians study the past, journalists cover the present, and futurists explore the future.
A slightly more complex answer is that we study change, in which I note the likely influence of disruptive changes forces us to consider a range of future outcomes.
The most complex [but short answer] is that we train futurists in three areas: understanding the key concepts of futures thinking, mapping the future with alternatives or scenarios, and influencing the future with visions, plans, and designs.

If you’d like to share you elevator speech, I’d love to hear it. Andy Hines

Foresight Classics: Rescuing All Our Futures

Rescuing all our Futures: The Future of Futures Studies was edited by Zia Sardar and published in 1999. It makes a strong case that futures studies – in particular US-based — had become locked into a “single, myopic vision” of the future based on technology and globalization that largely neglects the non-Western world. The future is seen as “colonized” by this vision, that is, it crowds out alternative visions of the future. The notion of colonizing the future suggests that the dominant vision constrains the imagination of what else could be possible. Indeed, it was noted that some non-Western countries were simply adopting this vision – not being aware of alternatives.

It was quite fascinating to read how this idea came through in different ways throughout the collection of 18 essays — by mostly non-US folks critical of mostly US futures studies. Indeed, the argument comes through even stronger in a subsequent book by Sardar published a few years later: Why Do People Hate America.

I think this argument was – and perhaps still is – a useful one to consider. I do feel like it casts the net too broadly and suggests that all US futurists are alike, and either oblivious or actively complicit in promoting this future. It’s not true of most of my US colleagues, who are fervent proponents of alternative futures. I suppose, however, I’m mostly hanging around professional futurists or those who want to be. And most of us/them do not believe this path is a good one. There are some “pop” futurists out there on the circuit proclaiming one future, probably more implicit than explicit. And perhaps the Singularity folks could be seen as putting out one version of the future, although it is different from the mono-vision suggested in “Rescuing.” But I don’t want to suggest that all pop futurists or all Singulartarians believe the same thing. “Rescuing” put the East vs. West argument on the table – I hope that we’re done with it by now ( I fear, however, that there is still an undercurrent)

I was more fascinated by the fact that this single, myopic vision identified back in 1999 is indeed still in play. Slaughter’s Biggest Wake Up Call, among others have noted this in more recent time. For our teaching and training at the Houston Foresight program, we typically use a baseline scenario – defined as a continuity future based on current trends, plans, and projections staying on track. My most generic version of that is called the Long Boom, taken from Peter Schwartz’s book published in 1999. It is sometimes forgotten that the Long Boom was one of four scenarios published in Wired Magazine, but it became the “popular” one, which was then featured separately in a subsequent issue and then became a book. The others are long forgotten.

One could argue that the Long Boom continues to represent the baseline scenario (or least the perception of it as an “official future”), even as evidence to the contrary mounts. But identifying the baseline does mean that we support, agree with it, or like it – it is simply what we see as the dominant current future – as the contributors found back in 1999. Indeed, much of our work today looks for ways to disrupt or move off this baseline. — Andy Hines

APF Most Significant Futures Works Awards 2015

I have been involved with the APF Most Significant Futures Works awards (MSFW) program since we started it in 2007 and had the pleasure of chairing it this year. I really believe in the need for us to “get the word out” on the good work that futurists are doing. We can point clients or those interested in foresight to the listing of award winners when they ask us to show them examples of good futures works. We know have several years of examples! And I also enjoy honoring colleagues. Foresight is fun, yes, but it is also hard work, and given that our impacts are mostly realized in the future, we don’t get a lot of recognition, so it’s nice to just see people recognized for their good work. And, finally, it’s really cool for me to see this good work being done — as a teacher of foresight, it’s important to have a sense of what the good work is, who’s doing it, and where it’s being done.

The “Mutative Media” entry was a monograph in a more traditional mode.

It seems to me that the panel of judges has a tougher job every year as the works are getting better and there are more of them. Andy Hines

Expert and Participatory Foresight

Last we talked about three futurist roles. Along those lines are the different ways that we go about performing those roles. I suppose that types or orientations might best describe them. I see at least five types of futurist orientations in doing our work along a continuum– work that is more oriented to the futurist and the other being more oriented toward the participants.

Outsourcing: where the futurists are handed the project by the clients, who waits for the answer with very little input, as they don’t want to bias the work through their participation.
Buying-in: where the futurists largely drive a project, but may have client input, and come up with a vision or visions that they tried to persuade the client to adopt.
Facilitating: where the futurists focus more on designing and guiding a process — and perhaps some content to stimulate thinking — to enable the client to come to their own point-of-view.
Coaching: where the futurist delivers a project and trains the client to do it themselves by having them participate by teaching them and having them learn-by-doing.
Co-creating: where the futurists and clients are more or less on equal footing and working together seamlessly.

My observation is that over the last two decades the shift has been away from the expert end and towards the participatory one. It is pretty rare these days to get an outsourced project, though it does happen occasionally. I do see merit in getting a completely fresh viewpoint in some circumstances. For the futurists, we have the benefit of control, but the absence of client input and feedback can be challenging.

Buying-in is more common, but is also on the decline. The team comes in and delivers the pitch, often together with the direct client, for the client-of-the-client.

Facilitating is where we start tipping towards a more prominent role for clients in that the futurist is clearly in a supporting and guiding role. In my experience, however, the futurist can still play an expert role here, but it is not aimed at persuading the client toward a particular point-of-view of the futurist.

Coaching is on the upswing (and probably my personal favorite) in which the client wants to learn how to use a method and the teaching takes place during a live project. The challenging aspect is to truly set aside enough time for pure coaching moments, discussions, and reflections, and not getting too caught up in the particular project.

Co-creating is also on the upswing in which futurists are team members. Part of this growth comes from the growth of organizational futurists on the inside. In other cases futurists become a true part of the client team – it could involve co-locating, although the rise of virtual teams makes this less vital.

These roles are by no means mutually exclusive and we may do some of each of them. But maybe we have a preference? So, where do you fit?– Andy Hines

Real options, scenarios, & sensemaking

Read an interesting piece on combining scenario planning and real options: “Making sense of future uncertainties using real options and scenario planning” (sorry, not available for free), outlines a three-stage process to explore the following question: “Do real options thinking and scenario planning enhance collaborative sensemaking in dealing with future changes and strategic options?”

I’ve been especially interesting in finding ways to linking scenarios more tightly to action, whether it’s strategy, policy, consumer insight, or new business development. In our Framework Foresight process, we developed an Implications Analysis module as a bridge from scenarios to the identity of strategic issues or opportunities, because students and clients often struggled with this transition. We’ve also been spending more time on working with indicators – including developing an “Indicator Bingo” game. This has helped a lot, but I’m always on the lookout for different techniques. I recall playing with real options maybe ten years ago, thinking it had great potential for linking to foresight, but never figured out a way to make it work (probably because I did not try hard enough).

I was intrigued to see this article title and dove in. concept. To cut to the chase, the authors concluded that: “Overall, the real options concept appeared to be too complex to be immediately adopted, although it was recognized as a useful tool in negotiating with contractors over flexibility.” In essence, they found a neat way to bring scenario planning and real options together, but it was a bit too complex for the groups. I’m not surprised about that, but I am intrigued by the process that the authors described.

In the first stage, the scenarios provided the exploratory context; in the second, the organization envisions their desired future state or preferred future, and the third develops strategy or strategic response via the real options — to work toward the preferred future based on the exploratory context described by the scenarios.

They also called out “sensemaking” throughout the process. I think in my own practice, we do this, but more implicit than explicit, i.e., I have not called out “time for sensemaking.” Here is how the authors define sensemaking: “individuals give meaning to the events and actions taking place in an organization. Sensemaking is undertaken by individuals in interaction with others, each having their own socially constructed reality based upon their experiences. Collective sensemaking takes place when individuals discuss their insights and knowledge obtained by individual sensemaking. In this way, tacit knowledge of individuals becomes more explicit and usable.” One might say that “strategic conversation” fits this approach. They go on to add that ….”sensemaking starts by people noticing cues. Cues are seen as those observable events that are inconsistent with people’s expectations and require further attention….people can only absorb a certain number of cues without reacting, after which they experience a ‘shock’ that initiates the sensemaking process. The two most common sensemaking events that generate shocks are ambiguity and uncertainty.” The goal of scenario planning is to change the “frames” or mental models of participant which is done by introducing the cues. The real options serve as future cues — similar to the indicators concept that is typical of scenario planning.

Before going to deep in the weeds, let’s resurface and see if we can do a lot sensemaking about what we have so far. I think the authors have done a terrific job in making a connections that makes a whole lot of sense (pun intended), and that this is an area that is ripe for further investigation. Maybe it’s a bit complex for audiences right now, but isn’t that a juicy challenge for us! Andy Hines

An Ninth Characteristic of the Future Economy: Different Skill Mixes

Since this is the last post in the series on characteristics of the emerging economy, I’ll start with links to the previous entries in the series:

It will transform….eventually
It will continue to bifurcate
It will be smarter
It will be more open
It will be more sustainable
It will be more local
It will be increasingly virtual
It will be one factor in measuring success
It will require different skills

I’m sure that every “new” economy requires different skills, so I plead guilty to being obvious here. It may be just a bit less obvious to note that professionals will require a mix of general and specific skills. In our Foresight Program , for instance we sort out general and foresight-specific skills this way.

Generic Skills

Foresight Skills

Researching (finding, reading, understanding, citing; analyzing; synthesizing; interpreting, drawing conclusions, making inferences)Thinking (critical thinking, systems thinking, creative thinking)

Facilitating (group process, teamwork)

Decision making (values clarification, decision analysis)

Communicating (curating, speaking, writing, visualizing)

Framing (problem identification & scoping)Scanning (current and future conditions; identifying new developments)

Forecasting (systems models, judgment tools, time series, scenarios, etc.)

Visioning (developing visions)

Planning (developing strategic issues, plans, goals)

Leading change (change agent, change management, project management)

Source: A. Hines, drawing on P. Bishop, 2014)

I suspect every profession could – and perhaps should – produce a similar table.

It is also useful to think about the general trend toward automating certain tasks out of existence – thus eliminating the need for those skills. Below is a really useful chart brought to my attention by my UH colleague Peter Bishop that really lays bare what’s happening in terms of automation. Routine tasks are being automated out of existence. It’s the new division of labor, where machines handle the routine, and people the non-routine.

I’ll conclude by pointing you to an with an excellent infographic on future work skills from the Institute for the Future. It’s been fun going through this emerging economy journey together. Andy Hines

Panarchy, the Adaptive Cycle, and Change

I re-read Panarchy a while back and it’s even better the second time around! While I have pages of notes, thought I’d share three areas where it has influenced my practice.

Revised our description of change. Fresh off teaching two week-long certificate courses, visions of change are dancing in my head. We introduce four aspects of change, dealing with sources, rates, levels, and time horizon. I think it’s time to add a fifth: cycles, drawing on the Adaptive Cycle notion at the heart of Panarchy. [I’m not quite sure if “cycles” is the right descriptor, it will have to do as a placeholder.]

Here’s the graphic of the adaptive cycle.

The 4 phases explained:

(R) Exploitation: rapid colonization of recently disturbed areas

(K) Conservation: sustained plateau or maximum population that is maintained

(Ώ) Release: creative destruction, e.g., in nature by fires, droughts, pests or intense pulses of grazing

(α) Reorganization: processes minimize nutrient loss so they become available for next exploitation

In business terms, exploitation is a period of growth and competition among entrepreneurs and survivors previous cycles; in conservation, the winners consolidate and then maintain the existing order; in release the established order breaks down and uncertainty increases; and in reorganization new players and alternatives emerge.

2. Rethink the analysis of “drivers.” Panarchy observes that ecosystems are comprised of fast and slow processes operating at different scales. Assuming that a domain or topic we are forecasting is an ecosystem, the “fast and slow at different scales” strikes me as particularly relevant to the phase in which we identify “drivers.” For practical purposes many times we simply consider drivers on equal terms. Yet, clearly they are part of systems moving at a different pace and having different reach or scope. There are fast-moving and slow-moving drivers with different scope. A challenge then, is how to operationalize these differences in “rate” and “scope?”

3. A new economic system should target adaptive capacity rather than steady state. A key notion of Panarchy is that adaptive cycles are nested in a hierarchy across time and space. Basically, there are many adaptive cycles, with different scopes and different time cycles, operating simultaneously. So, there are small-scale systems changing rapidly within large-scale systems changing slowly, multiply by “many” and note they are all interacting with one another at different levels, and you have a panarchy.

Fast-changing levels invent, experiment and test (learn) while the slower levels stabilize and conserve (continuity). So, the interaction between cycles in a panarchy combines learning with continuity. That clarifies the meaning of sustainable development: sustainability is the capacity to create, test, and maintain adaptive ability; development is the process of creating, testing, and maintaining opportunity.

I had been using the term “steady-state” to describe the goal of a transformed economic system, which I’ve been calling the Soft Path. Well, not exactly. Panarchy points out that many efforts to “fix” natural systems shoot for a steady-state or equilibrium, but this misses the fact that the nature is continuously changing. The goal is not to achieve and maintain steady-state, but rather a system that is capable of adapting along with the continuously changing system. Thus, a transformative economic system is one capable of being adaptive.

These are just three insights that I was able to immediately apply. I have several more pages of notes to digest. Andy Hines
