My NEXT Raise Partner Webinar: Turn Ideas Into Action with Strategic Foresight

Let’s say you have an idea, vision or goal. So, you need a strategy to get there. But what do you do first…? That’s where Strategic Foresight comes in — it’s the piece between vision and tactics. It’s a skill and a way of thinking that combines creativity and analysis to help turn ideas into action.
