FutureFIT Organizations
On the importance of Foresight, Innovation and Twisting to develop leaders and organizations that thrive in an uncertain and volatile world
Is your organization prepared for tomorrow?
In a world of constant change, the readiness of your organization to innovate and transform is crucial. How fit is your organization to anticipate future trends? Does is pay enough attention to innovation? Do your leaders and employees have the mindset and competences to embrace new ways of working? Are your teams equipped with the tools and processes they need? Is your organization designed to survive in uncertain and volatile environments? Does your organization think not only about today’s success but future survival? Do you have governance mechanisms and measures to ensure that in your organization the future not only counts, but is of paramount importance?
Becoming a FutureFIT organization
In an increasingly complex and uncertain business environment organizations and their leaders need to develop new capabilities, skills, structures, work practices and culture to face the future. They need to consistently demonstrate foresight, manage a novel innovation portfolio and have the ability to be on a continuouslt adapt to changing conditions, hence twisting their organizations to embrace not only their traditional business but also allow new business ideas and models to thrive.
Strong leadership competencies and collaboration within top management teams, combined with agile organizational structures and practices, are essential components for building "FutureFIT" organizations.
FutureFIT Organizations Index
Our FutureFIT organization index gives you a comprehensive organizational and leadership assessment. We evaluate your organization's ability to anticipate future trends, innovate sustainably, and twist your organization effectively in uncertain environments. We also evaluate the leadership skills and competencies required to execute in The outcomes will help you to design strategies and implement actions in three main areas.
Foresee
We assess if your organization thinks about the future – is it customer centric? Have you implemented methodologies to anticipate how to adapt your products, solutions and services to the needs of your customers? Are you ready to see beyond the trends, understanding what it means for your customers and your organization? Have you developed teams and executives to think ahead, and do they have the right incentives?
Innovate
How does your organization innovate? Are you focused on driving incremental innovations, improve processes and methods to drive performance? Do you think about the really long term, how the world is going to look like in 10 years from now, and how your organization can serve the world that is yet to come? Do your executives have time to think about the long term, and to share their views? In other words, do you conceive innovation as a way to earn, or a way to learn?
Twist
Who in your organization is responsible for the development of hypotheses about the future, who runs experiments to learn more about the underlying drivers of the changes that your organization is facing? Do you have ways to systematically implement the required changes to conceive transformation as a journey that combines your traditional business with the new opportunities? Can you become an organization that is able to "change by design"?
