 I worked with IFTF for years as part of their connection to our big enterprise,   connecting with our  top corporate level.    Were always very thought provoking and useful.  Here an intro, click through for much more details and registration. 

IFTF Design Futures

Institute for the Future (IFTF) is pleased to offer a training with our team of award-winning design futurists to learn to imagine and prototype informed alternatives to the future, and design new offerings and policies for the next decade.   Creating artifacts from the future is one way IFTF uses design t ostart the futures thinking process. They are the first prototypes of a world to come. The artifact from the future, at left, creates a plausible vision of what direct-action climate activism might look like in 10 years.  ....
