Описание: In Japan, the Delphi method has been used since 1971 to predict possible technological developments. Possible realization goals, constraints on their achievement, the current R&D level of the two nations and the necessity of international co-operation all give hints on tomorrow`s technology and its economic and societal impacts.
Patterns of the Future explains the current world using the theory of long-term development waves (Kondratiev waves). Markku Wilenius, Professor of Futures Studies, argues that we are now entering the sixth wave: the age of intelligent, integrated technologies, helping to restore the balance between humans, technology and nature by radically improved material and energy efficiency and a wiser use of human potential.
The unfolding sixth wave will challenge our current values, institutions and business models. Using a systems-based approach, Patterns of the Future analyses how corporations and the public sector can navigate in the sixth wave. Case studies look at specific examples of this, using high-profile companies to demonstrate both the best- (and worst-) case scenarios of innovation for change.
This book spans concepts from multiple disciplines in the social sciences, making it relevant not only to undergraduate and graduate students in futures studies, environmental studies, economics, and business, but also national policymakers, think tanks, corporate operators and indeed for any one seriously interested in the future.

Описание:
Innovation is a lazy industry word. Often but a label for yet another leadership ambition, another consultant-driven program. Innovation has ceased to be a positive force for change. To reverse this, we need to leverage its design and value creation free of the tyranny of profit and efficiency. By designing with more meaning, and not only for iteration, disruption and predictability.
Mario Van der Meulen's nine counterintuitive behavioral principles will inspire entrepreneurs, executives, consultants, designers and innovators on the front line in virtually any industry to enact positive change in the creation of innovation. Are you ready to act as a catalyst for meaningful innovation and design action? Only those that can pioneer new ways of proposing more meaningful possibilities will warrant the reputation of being true innovators, keeping our innovations and designs human. In fact, these will then become more meaningfully human.
Innovators, entrepreneurs, and designers usually have a pragmatic and instrumental relation with the future. However, our attempts to construct the future in rigid, process-driven methodologies, like design thinking, is mostly leading to the reproduction of known thinking and meaningless ideas. Now that the tech, consumer, and design fields are converging, Mario Van der Meulen believes we need to make a mindset shift to create a future that looks more human by tech, and not less because of it.
To evoke meaning and broaden the outcomes of our innovations, we need new ways of seeing, thinking, understanding, and acting, to intentionally embrace the richness of possibilities. Surprisingly, it is often by doing that what seems counterintuitive. New ways of thinking and working - even the ones that feel counterintuitive - are the kind of things a design mind should love to experiment with
If it is unclear exactly how leaders may influence perceptions of meaning for their colleagues, clients and stakeholders, these nine counterintuitive behavioral principles will inspire leaders to enact positive change in the creation of innovation. Only those that can pioneer new ways of proposing more meaningful possibilities will warrant the reputation of being true innovators, keeping our innovations and designs human. In fact, these will then become more meaningfully human. Are you ready to act as a catalyst for meaningful innovation and design action?

Описание: ?Decision-makers at all levels are being confronted with novel complexities and uncertainties and face long-term challenges which require foresight about long-term future prospects, assumptions, and strategies. This book explores how foresight studies can be systematically undertaken and used in this context. It explicates why and how methods like horizon scanning, scenario planning, and roadmapping should be applied when dealing with high levels of uncertainty. The scope of the book moves beyond “narrow” technology foresight, towards addressing systemic interrelations between social, technological, economic, environmental, and political systems. Applications of foresight tools to such fields as energy, cities, health, transportation, education, and sustainability are considered as well as enabling technologies including nano-, bio-, and information technologies and cognitive sciences. The approaches will be illustrated with specific actual cases.
