Foresight, Innovation & Transformation Chair
Increasing uncertainty requires firms to upgrade their capabilities. Change creates challenges, but also opportunities. The chair aims to make organizations FIT to drive desirable futures for people, prosperity and planet.
« Nos recherches s’appuient sur la conviction que les organisations telles que nous les avons construites pour des environnements stables sont mal équipées pour les changements incessants auxquels elles sont confrontées aujourd'hui. Cela crée des défis, mais aussi des opportunités. La capacité à embrasser le changement et à en tirer profit déterminera les gagnants et les perdants du XXIe siècle. Pendant plus d'une décennie, nous avons étudié les organisations qui tirent profit du changement, élaboré un modèle de maturité pour la préparation future des organisations et développé un ensemble complet de pratiques pour améliorer le foresight, l'innovation et la transformation. »
René Rohrbeck, Directeur de la chaire
