Module description
This module develops capability in strategic foresight, horizon scanning and futures analysis to identify emerging forces, shifting customer needs and potential disruptions. It introduces approaches for competing under uncertainty, including transient advantage, diversification, co-opetition and ecosystem strategy, and examines how organisations evolve through continuous adaptation rather than reliance on static competitive positions. Using practitioner-oriented tools and applied case work, students generate and evaluate strategic and business model options for future markets. Emphasis is placed on designing options that are commercially viable and socially responsible, and on translating foresight into actionable choices for strategy, investment and organisational alignment.
