Description:

Our basic ideas about practicing foresight – just like most everything else in life – are generally defined through a linear and mechanistic system centered on siloing, separation, quantification, reduction, control, and extrapolation.  Our frustration with this common but limiting approach inspired us to begin sharing the futures philosophy of Holoptic Foresight Dynamics (HFD). 

Defined as the cooperative evolutionary trait of perceiving emerging novelty that fosters the co-creation of transformational realities, HFD is for anyone who is ready to move beyond futuring as a systemic method, and into futuring as a cooperative trait of life-giving consciousness. This approach seeks to unlock a shared universal dynamic of care, empathy, diversity, collaboration, and love within all.

Foresight… Futures Thinking… Futures Studies… Futures Literacy… Anticipation.

Often used interchangeably, each of these words has enjoyed varying degrees of popularity over the last few decades, as practitioners in the field trade out terms hoping to gain better traction integrating foresight into organizations and institutions. While some may argue that each of these terms has a unique meaning, they all certainly share one thing in common – an attempt to leverage the future as a means to make better decisions in the present.

HFD challenges this shared outcome as we pose these valid questions:

  • Can we really produce results that create a transformed world if our value proposition begins with a flawed reality? 
  • Can we effectively implement change without first addressing the way we think, feel, sense, and intuit? 
  • In a time between worlds, can we afford to utilize foresight tools and methods before we deeply consider our understanding of the very nature of futures thinking?
  • Is our “doing” truly beneficial if we haven’t first addressed our collective “becoming?”

Such a foundation makes all the difference in the world, liberating us from the efficient tyranny of circular “doing” into the kinship, the relational emergence, the meadowverse, the pluriversiality, and the cosmovision of “being” and “becoming.” With such a foundation, our work can become truly human, symbiotic, meaningful, and spiritual. 

After sharing the HFD primer at several worldwide conferences and hosting two in-person retreats to further explore the philosophy, we are excited to announce a brand new, live, online offering – The Dragonfly Journey – a 12-month, guided community of practice led by Frank Spencer. 

Join us on December 10, 2024 at 2-3:30 pm (UTC -5) for a free informational webinar to learn more about this new TFSX experience. During this event, TFSX co-founder Frank Spencer will give a brief introduction to Holoptic Foresight Dynamics, and detail the agenda for the 2025 community of practice. We will also hear from community alumni, participate in Q&A, and share how you can be a part of the next 12 months of The Dragonfly Journey
