What is Foresight?
Foresight is a critical activity that involves analyzing the future. The objective of conducting foresight activities is to examine plausible, alternative futures and identify the challenges and opportunities that may arise. Foresight gives us the opportunity to understand the various forces that shape a system, how the system may evolve and what unanticipated circumstances may come about. Within the context of the Public Service, foresight helps governments adjust to a quickly changing world.[1] It can be applied to policy development, strategic planning, decision-making, auditing and evaluating as a mechanism to promote proactive governance.
Foresight is not to be confused with forecasting. Forecasting refers to the process of trying to predict the future using past data; whereas foresight helps us prepare for a wider range of futures.[2]
Read our introduction to foresight document.
A Glimpse Ahead: Exploring the Future of the Public Workforce at ESDC Report
The Human Resources Innovation Strategic Foresight Team, in partnership with Policy Horizons Canada, are very excited to announce our Strategic Foresight Report:
- A Glimpse Ahead: Exploring the Future of the Public Workforce at ESDC
Over the last ten months, HRI and Horizons developed research and facilitated several workshops with staff from across the Employment and Social Development Canada to explore the future of work within the department. Specifically, we discussed forces disrupting some of the ways we work and what that could mean for the future of ESDC and the public service at large in the coming years.
Please feel free to contact us if you have any additional questions or interests regarding the report. And, super major thank you to Policy Horizons Canada for their assistance during this process.
Scan club
Scan Club is a forum where we present and discuss weak signals discovered during an environment scan (articles, documentaries,etc.). A weak signal is an indicator of a potentially emerging disruption that may become significant in the future. During the session, the analyst first presents the weak signal. Then, ask for questions and considerations. Finally, we push the weak signals out to the future to flag the potential changes this signal could bring to the world if it became significant. Contact usfor more information.
