In spring semester I taught an MBA class: FUTURE AND FORESIGHT. It is somewhat rare to teach it in a Business School. Often, some future thinking approaches are blended into other traditional business topics, such as Strategy.
In this message I briefly share my experience. My syllabus outline for this short class appears below. I benefited immensely from being here in Washington DC where many of the best futurists work. Several were able to come speak to the class. Week 1: Introduction? Week 2: Scenarios. Creating scenarios is one of the foundational methods. It is the core method for the student papers. Week 3: Desired Futures ; Patterns & Trends Week 4: Technology; Scanning; Wild Cards Week 5: Other Key Tools and Methods (Included a Delphi exercise). Week 6: The future molecular economy and other topics. Week 7: Celebration with Foods of the Future / Students Presentations. Erran Carmel Professor of Information Technology and International Business Research Professor. Kogod School of Business, American University, Washington D.C. 20016-8044 USA. +1.202.885.1928 carmel@american.edu |

Every year I choose a theory, or thinker of foresight with whom I intentionally think. This past year I have intentionally thought about intention qua intention. Those thinkers who have shaped my lived experience include Linda McTagger.t (The Field) and William Tiller. This process has revolutionized every thing I have done in my practice as both a teacher and administrator. The focal point of my intention aims to enlighten students' understandings of what I currently refer to as our "unified mind." Along the lines of futures, foresight education and intention I would love to be engaged with others in this trope. Thusly, as for the aforementioned name search, I would offer "Intentional Futures, Creation and Studies."
Best to all. Elizabeth Haran Caplan |

It is more and more important to entroduce peace education with foresight education. Much has been done in peace education and some people hav econnected to foresight but it is important that pece be part of foresight education as foresight in any subject is linked to possible futures of conflict as well as peace
