Recommendation

The future does not and never will exist, but people base many decisions on their conception of it. Futurist Dr. Pero Mićić’s book deals with the complexities of “future management” and “futures methodology.” The first three chapters, where Mićić lays out his elevated concepts, might be tough sledding, but from chapter four – where the author outlines his “five futures glasses” metaphor – his information becomes clearer and more applicable. getAbstract recommends this book and its helpful case studies to corporate directors, executives, private investors and all decision makers. Mićić’s original future analysis proves impressive and useful.

Take-Aways

  • Predicting the future is impossible.
  • Assessing what the future may hold for you and your organization is possible – and vitally important.
  • Flawed assumptions about the future will prevent you from developing a viable strategy for your organization or yourself.
