Facilitating the Future

Look into the future with TrendSearch.  Develop your Vision & Values.  See beyond the day-to-day with a collaborative,  co-creative, future-thinking session @ the Turbine.

TrendSearch

What trends will affect your organization in the next five to twenty years?  How can you prepare for them, to create the future, rather than react to it?
TrendSearch is an original mix of intensive desk research & stakeholder engagements that are synthesized and workshopped to develop the threads that lead you into the future.
Recent TrendSearch work has been undertaken for Cape Town, MTN & Nestlé Professional.

VP.VP (Vision – Purpose – Values – Priorities)

Do you have a 3D Vision – with a sense of Direction, Discovery & Destiny?    Do you all have a purpose, beyond the money? Are there shared values that guide your big and daily decisions?  Is there a focus on what must be done now, without compromise?
We have facilitated VP.VP sessions for over 12 years, from corporate blue chips to new chips, from cities to a symphony orchestra.     Your Vision, Purpose, Values & Priorities are the building bocks of culture; and powerful cultures create enduring organizations as well as winning brands.
Recent VP.VP Sessions have been facilitated for Consumer Assist, Sunday Times

Strategy & Structure

Restructuring is a traumatic experience for those being restructured, especially when the compelling logic is missing & all too soon another restructuring happens. 
Visions need to be cascaded goals, objectives and strategies.  Then structure enables strategy.  Restructuring may still feel like root canal treatment for those involved, but at least they know it’s for the right reasons and they will feel better after. 

Co-Creative Days

Everyone in your organization can be innovative.  Bring people together, with the right stimuli, and ideas flow.  We design co-creative days that are fun, challenging, inspiring – and ideas that emerge during these days are now being implemented.
New connections are made during these days – people from different units in your organization will find common ground as the pleasure of collaboration overcomes wariness.
Co-creative Days have been held for Discovery Health & MTN

Rethinking Series

Are you Rethinking Africa, Rethinking Media, Rethinking Organisational Development, Rethinking Sustainability? 
Freedthinkers has a panel of specialist facilitators who take you through a highly interactive learning & rethinking experience around your specific needs.
What should change in your organization – what should you stop, start, re-enforce?  And how do you change, seamlessly without resistance?  It is good to take time out to question all your assumptions; to think strategically; to imagine what can be; to dream why not.  And at the end of the day come up with a plan of action.

Having discovered what can be, find out how to get there.
