"A lot of innovation is being seen through the lens of, "We'll deal with it when we have extra money." But we need to think about it through the lens of "If we don't do this, we'll be disrupted." [Otherwise] you are not building resiliency in the system and you might be confronting unintended consequences in the future. And those are things we need to deal with." – Cecilia Tham
In this episode, Aki and Cecilia discuss -
- What a 'Future Synthesist' is and how it differs from a Futurist
- How not being 'hireable' paved the way for an entrepreneurial path
- How Futurity Studio is "building better futures faster"
- Transforming the innovation space through the democratisation of tools
- The need to migrate towards incorporating different perspectives in conversations around futurism
