Foresight is “a university human capacity which allows people to think ahead and consider, model, create and respond to, future eventualities” (Foresight International, 2006). Foresight is, however, usually an unconscious thinking process – we all think about the future, but often do not recognise that we are engaging in foresight. In an organisational context, foresight is not necessarily recognised or universal, and overt processes generally need to be put in place, supported by specific methodologies, in order to develop an organisational capacity for foresight.
