Heiko von der Gracht:
Using strategic foresight approaches, students are guided to develop a sustainable understanding of managing dynamics and complexity in different environments. Additionally, they will learn perspectives/attitudes and methods on how to proactively shape the future. Each of the three phases of the foresight process (scanning, foresight, transfer) is covered in detail. We will apply a trend portfolio framework to cluster functional trends (e.g. marketing, sales, production) and to derive strategies based upon them.
