Transformation for Libraries: The Futures School (TFSX)

Resources on Futures Thinking and Strategic Foresight

Testimonials

“It's great to have a model that is normally applied to business be specifically applied to libraries. Our profession really needs a shakeup!”

- Florida Cohort Participant

 

“In a world buffeted by uncertainty, The Futures School Applied Foresight Accelerator provides participants hope for a better future by offering strategies to envision a multiverse of possible outcomes and a map to guide them towards the one that they want to realize.”

- Anonymous participant

 

“Every future is different and none of them are set in stone. Learning to plan for different future landscapes has destroyed a linear thought process... in the most exciting way. In a world where the future is limitless why not plan for them all?"  

- Mo Curley, Library Development Specialist, Martin County Library System

 

“I entered the Kedge futures training blindly hoping for a new experience to reinvigorate my motivation as a librarian and leader and left this experience with new energy and the skills to remove my blinders or narrow lenses into looking into my organization and community's future. Mahalo!”

- Lea Domingo, Branch Manager, Kaimuki Library, Hawaii State Public Library System
