This \'both-and\' perspective is especially useful in reconciling classical dichotimies such as agency (individuals can influence the future) and structure (structures define individuals and limit what is possible)\".</h6>\r\n<h6 style=\"text-align: left;\">- \"While globalisation has not suddenly developed a soft heart, the agenda now includes how we know the world and how these knowings are complicit in the disasters around us. This has led to calls to move from strategy as the defining metaphor of the world system [strategy as global structure] to health, or inner and outer balance\".</h6>\r\n<p>&nbsp;</p>\r\n<p>&nbsp;</p></blockquote>\r\n<p>[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=\"30px\"][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/vc_column][vc_column width=\"1/2\" el_class=\"wide-box-mobile\"][vc_single_image image=\"61\" img_size=\"full\" alignment=\"right\"][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row seperator_enable=\"seperator_enable_value\" seperator_type=\"triangle_svg_seperator\" seperator_position=\"bottom_seperator\" seperator_svg_height=\"60\" seperator_shape_background=\"#ffffff\" css=\".vc_custom_1481752768718{margin-bottom: 100px !important;padding-top: 120px !important;}\"][vc_column][ultimate_heading main_heading=\"OUR CLIENTS\" main_heading_font_family=\"font_family:Montserrat|font_call:Montserrat|variant:700\" main_heading_style=\"font-weight:700;\" main_heading_font_size=\"desktop:32px;tablet_portrait:36px;mobile_landscape:28px;mobile:28px;\" sub_heading_font_family=\"font_family:Raleway|font_call:Raleway|variant:300\" sub_heading_style=\"font-weight:300;\" sub_heading_font_size=\"desktop:18px;mobile_landscape:15px;mobile:15px;\" main_heading_line_height=\"mobile_landscape:36px;mobile:36px;\"][/ultimate_heading][vc_empty_space height=\"60px\"][testimonials des_testimonials_flex_direction_nav=\"no\" style=\"style2\" testimonials_cats=\"dark-text\"][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row bg_type=\"bg_color\" bg_override=\"ex-full\" enable_overlay=\"enable_overlay_value\" overlay_color=\"#101010\" css=\".vc_custom_1481569612907{padding-top: 60px !important;padding-bottom: 0px !important;}\" bg_color_value=\"#101010\"][vc_column][ultimate_carousel slide_to_scroll=\"single\" slides_on_mob=\"1\" arrow_color=\"#f7f7f7\" arrow_size=\"16\" dots=\"off\"][vc_single_image image=\"9896\" img_size=\"full\" alignment=\"center\" css_animation=\"bottom-to-top\"][vc_single_image image=\"9898\" img_size=\"full\" alignment=\"center\" css_animation=\"bottom-to-top\"][vc_single_image image=\"9895\" img_size=\"full\" alignment=\"center\" css_animation=\"bottom-to-top\"][vc_single_image image=\"9872\" img_size=\"full\" alignment=\"center\" css_animation=\"bottom-to-top\"][vc_single_image image=\"9870\" img_size=\"full\" alignment=\"center\" css_animation=\"bottom-to-top\"][/ultimate_carousel][/vc_column][/vc_row]</p>\r\n', 'Engaging Futures Home', '', 'inherit', 'closed', 'closed', '', '18-revision-v1', '', '', '2020-11-14 03:24:33', '2020-11-13 17:24:33', '', 18, 'http://localhost:8888/wordpress/2020/11/14/18-revision-v1/', 0, 'revision', '', 0),

Engaging Futures has presented to more than 40 organisations in the past few years - we must be doing something well - it\'s because we enjoy what we do.[/bsf-info-box][ultimate_spacer height=\"0\" height_on_mob_landscape=\"40\" height_on_mob=\"40\"][/vc_column][vc_column css_animation=\"slideInUp\" width=\"1/4\" css=\".vc_custom_1497199737375{padding-right: 25px !important;padding-left: 25px !important;}\"][bsf-info-box icon=\"Defaults-spinner\" icon_size=\"30\" title=\"Transformational Workshops And Reports\" read_more=\"box\" pos=\"top\" title_font=\"font_family:Open Sans|font_call:Open+Sans|variant:700\" title_font_style=\"font-weight:700;\" title_font_size=\"desktop:13px;\" title_font_color=\"#3f3f3f\"]Aside from smaller keynote presentations for conferences, we convene half-day workshops right through to three-day workshops, all focused on our client\'s vision. So, our client gains our full focus of attention, customised suggestions and we work with their team and help prepare their reports, for an additional fee, of course ;) Every little extra helps Engaging Futures to service you, our clients. We put days of preparation into our workshops, so, we give a little more during our client briefing session. Then, when we arrive in your seminar or meeting room, participants, executives and Engaging Futures are all smiles.[/bsf-info-box][/vc_column][vc_column css_animation=\"slideInUp\" width=\"1/4\"][bsf-info-box icon=\"Defaults-group users\" icon_size=\"30\" title=\"Futures Thinking Courses And Strategies\" read_more=\"box\" pos=\"top\" title_font=\"font_family:Open Sans|font_call:Open+Sans|variant:700\" title_font_style=\"font-weight:700;\" title_font_size=\"desktop:13px;\" title_font_color=\"#3f3f3f\"]Futures Thinking Courses bring diverse groups together to cross-fertilise a host of emerging issues - it\'s a great way to find out what issues other organisations are addressing and how they think the future might change for your sector. Everyone becomes more informed during Courses - even our presenters! We network you and help build an alumni of contacts for those wishing to remain a step ahead between Courses.[/bsf-info-box][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row full_width=\"stretch_row_content_no_spaces\" bg_type=\"bg_color\" bg_override=\"ex-full\" css=\".vc_custom_1480356215449{padding-top: 100px !important;}\" bg_color_value=\"#f7f7f7\"][vc_column width=\"1/2\" el_class=\"wide-box-mobile\"][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=\"1/4\"][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner el_class=\"home-box1-mobile\" width=\"3/4\"][vc_custom_heading text=\"OUR STRUCTURE\" font_container=\"tag:h2|font_size:26px|text_align:left\" use_theme_fonts=\"yes\"][vc_empty_space height=\"10px\"][vc_column_text]</p>\r\n<h5 class=\"font_5\">About Dr. Colin Russo</h5>\r\n<p class=\"font_7\">As Managing Director of Engaging Futures, Dr. Russo brings three decades of experience engaging stakeholders and clients of national, state and local governments.</p>\r\n<p class=\"font_7\">An award-winning futurist author, Dr. Russo writes using futures studies methods about topics including futures of cities, health, disabilities, security, technology and climate change.</p>\r\n<p class=\"font_7\">Dr. Russo has facilitated futures workshops for international, national, State, regional and local government, corporate and community sector organisations.</p>\r\n<h5 class=\"font_5\">The Futures Board</h5>\r\n<p class=\"font_5\">The ​Engaging Futures Board is where internal decisions are made about annual practices. <span class=\"wixGuard\">​</span>​</p>\r\n<h5 class=\"font_5\">Mentors And Friends Of Engaging Futures</h5>\r\n<p class=\"font_5\">Mentors and friends of Engaging Futures include the brilliant UNESCO Chair of Futures Studies, Professor Sohail Inayatullah, and the effervescent Professor Ivana Melojevic.

This \'both-and\' perspective is especially useful in reconciling classical dichotimies such as agency (individuals can influence the future) and structure (structures define individuals and limit what is possible)\".</h6>\r\n<h6 style=\"text-align: left;\">- \"While globalisation has not suddenly developed a soft heart, the agenda now includes how we know the world and how these knowings are complicit in the disasters around us. This has led to calls to move from strategy as the defining metaphor of the world system [strategy as global structure] to health, or inner and outer balance\".</h6>\r\n<p>&nbsp;</p>\r\n<p>&nbsp;</p></blockquote>\r\n<p>[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=\"30px\"][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/vc_column][vc_column width=\"1/2\" el_class=\"wide-box-mobile\"][vc_single_image image=\"61\" img_size=\"full\" alignment=\"right\"][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row seperator_enable=\"seperator_enable_value\" seperator_type=\"triangle_svg_seperator\" seperator_position=\"bottom_seperator\" seperator_svg_height=\"60\" seperator_shape_background=\"#ffffff\" css=\".vc_custom_1481752768718{margin-bottom: 100px !important;padding-top: 120px !important;}\"][vc_column][ultimate_heading main_heading=\"OUR CLIENTS\" main_heading_font_family=\"font_family:Montserrat|font_call:Montserrat|variant:700\" main_heading_style=\"font-weight:700;\" main_heading_font_size=\"desktop:32px;tablet_portrait:36px;mobile_landscape:28px;mobile:28px;\" sub_heading_font_family=\"font_family:Raleway|font_call:Raleway|variant:300\" sub_heading_style=\"font-weight:300;\" sub_heading_font_size=\"desktop:18px;mobile_landscape:15px;mobile:15px;\" main_heading_line_height=\"mobile_landscape:36px;mobile:36px;\"][/ultimate_heading][vc_empty_space height=\"60px\"][testimonials des_testimonials_flex_direction_nav=\"no\" style=\"style2\" testimonials_cats=\"dark-text\"][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row bg_type=\"bg_color\" bg_override=\"ex-full\" enable_overlay=\"enable_overlay_value\" overlay_color=\"#101010\" css=\".vc_custom_1481569612907{padding-top: 60px !important;padding-bottom: 0px !important;}\" bg_color_value=\"#101010\"][vc_column][ultimate_carousel slide_to_scroll=\"single\" slides_on_mob=\"1\" arrow_color=\"#f7f7f7\" arrow_size=\"16\" dots=\"off\"][vc_single_image image=\"9896\" img_size=\"full\" alignment=\"center\" css_animation=\"bottom-to-top\"][vc_single_image image=\"9898\" img_size=\"full\" alignment=\"center\" css_animation=\"bottom-to-top\"][vc_single_image image=\"9895\" img_size=\"full\" alignment=\"center\" css_animation=\"bottom-to-top\"][vc_single_image image=\"9872\" img_size=\"full\" alignment=\"center\" css_animation=\"bottom-to-top\"][vc_single_image image=\"9870\" img_size=\"full\" alignment=\"center\" css_animation=\"bottom-to-top\"][/ultimate_carousel][/vc_column][/vc_row]</p>\r\n', 'Engaging Futures Home', '', 'inherit', 'closed', 'closed', '', '18-revision-v1', '', '', '2020-11-14 10:43:30', '2020-11-14 00:43:30', '', 18, 'http://localhost:8888/wordpress/2020/11/14/18-revision-v1/', 0, 'revision', '', 0),

This \'both-and\' perspective is especially useful in reconciling classical dichotimies such as agency (individuals can influence the future) and structure (structures define individuals and limit what is possible)\".</h6>\r\n<h6 style=\"text-align: left;\">- \"While globalisation has not suddenly developed a soft heart, the agenda now includes how we know the world and how these knowings are complicit in the disasters around us. This has led to calls to move from strategy as the defining metaphor of the world system [strategy as global structure] to health, or inner and outer balance\".</h6>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n&nbsp;</blockquote>\r\n[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=\"30px\"][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/vc_column][vc_column width=\"1/2\" el_class=\"wide-box-mobile\"][vc_single_image image=\"61\" img_size=\"full\" alignment=\"right\"][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row seperator_enable=\"seperator_enable_value\" seperator_type=\"triangle_svg_seperator\" seperator_position=\"bottom_seperator\" seperator_svg_height=\"60\" seperator_shape_background=\"#ffffff\" css=\".vc_custom_1481752768718{margin-bottom: 100px !important;padding-top: 120px !important;}\"][vc_column][ultimate_heading main_heading=\"OUR CLIENTS\" main_heading_font_family=\"font_family:Montserrat|font_call:Montserrat|variant:700\" main_heading_style=\"font-weight:700;\" main_heading_font_size=\"desktop:32px;tablet_portrait:36px;mobile_landscape:28px;mobile:28px;\" sub_heading_font_family=\"font_family:Raleway|font_call:Raleway|variant:300\" sub_heading_style=\"font-weight:300;\" sub_heading_font_size=\"desktop:18px;mobile_landscape:15px;mobile:15px;\" main_heading_line_height=\"mobile_landscape:36px;mobile:36px;\"][/ultimate_heading][vc_empty_space height=\"60px\"][testimonials des_testimonials_flex_direction_nav=\"no\" style=\"style2\" testimonials_cats=\"dark-text\"][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row bg_type=\"bg_color\" bg_override=\"ex-full\" enable_overlay=\"enable_overlay_value\" overlay_color=\"#101010\" css=\".vc_custom_1481569612907{padding-top: 60px !important;padding-bottom: 0px !important;}\" bg_color_value=\"#101010\"][vc_column][ultimate_carousel slide_to_scroll=\"single\" slides_on_mob=\"1\" arrow_color=\"#f7f7f7\" arrow_size=\"16\" dots=\"off\"][vc_single_image image=\"9896\" img_size=\"full\" alignment=\"center\" css_animation=\"bottom-to-top\"][vc_single_image image=\"9898\" img_size=\"full\" alignment=\"center\" css_animation=\"bottom-to-top\"][vc_single_image image=\"9895\" img_size=\"full\" alignment=\"center\" css_animation=\"bottom-to-top\"][vc_single_image image=\"9872\" img_size=\"full\" alignment=\"center\" css_animation=\"bottom-to-top\"][vc_single_image image=\"9870\" img_size=\"full\" alignment=\"center\" css_animation=\"bottom-to-top\"][/ultimate_carousel][/vc_column][/vc_row]', 'Engaging Futures Home', '', 'inherit', 'closed', 'closed', '', '18-revision-v1', '', '', '2020-11-14 17:52:31', '2020-11-14 07:52:31', '', 18, 'http://localhost:8888/wordpress/2020/11/14/18-revision-v1/', 0, 'revision', '', 0),

So, our client gains our full focus of attention, customised suggestions and we work with their team and help prepare their reports, for an additional fee, of course ;) Every little extra helps Engaging Futures to service you, our clients. We put days of preparation into our workshops, so, we give a little more during our client briefing session.

This \'both-and\' perspective is especially useful in reconciling classical dichotimies such as agency (individuals can influence the future) and structure (structures define individuals and limit what is possible)\".</h6>\r\n<h6 style=\"text-align: left;\">- \"While globalisation has not suddenly developed a soft heart, the agenda now includes how we know the world and how these knowings are complicit in the disasters around us. This has led to calls to move from strategy as the defining metaphor of the world system [strategy as global structure] to health, or inner and outer balance\".</h6>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n&nbsp;</blockquote>\r\n[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=\"30px\"][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/vc_column][vc_column width=\"1/2\" el_class=\"wide-box-mobile\"][vc_single_image image=\"61\" img_size=\"full\" alignment=\"right\"][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row seperator_enable=\"seperator_enable_value\" seperator_type=\"triangle_svg_seperator\" seperator_position=\"bottom_seperator\" seperator_svg_height=\"60\" seperator_shape_background=\"#ffffff\" css=\".vc_custom_1481752768718{margin-bottom: 100px !important;padding-top: 120px !important;}\"][vc_column][ultimate_heading main_heading=\"OUR CLIENTS\" main_heading_font_family=\"font_family:Montserrat|font_call:Montserrat|variant:700\" main_heading_style=\"font-weight:700;\" main_heading_font_size=\"desktop:32px;tablet_portrait:36px;mobile_landscape:28px;mobile:28px;\" sub_heading_font_family=\"font_family:Raleway|font_call:Raleway|variant:300\" sub_heading_style=\"font-weight:300;\" sub_heading_font_size=\"desktop:18px;mobile_landscape:15px;mobile:15px;\" main_heading_line_height=\"mobile_landscape:36px;mobile:36px;\"][/ultimate_heading][vc_empty_space height=\"60px\"][testimonials des_testimonials_flex_direction_nav=\"no\" style=\"style2\" testimonials_cats=\"dark-text\"][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row bg_type=\"bg_color\" bg_override=\"ex-full\" enable_overlay=\"enable_overlay_value\" overlay_color=\"#101010\" css=\".vc_custom_1481569612907{padding-top: 60px !important;padding-bottom: 0px !important;}\" bg_color_value=\"#101010\"][vc_column][ultimate_carousel slide_to_scroll=\"single\" slides_on_mob=\"1\" arrow_color=\"#f7f7f7\" arrow_size=\"16\" dots=\"off\"][vc_single_image image=\"9896\" img_size=\"full\" alignment=\"center\" css_animation=\"bottom-to-top\"][vc_single_image image=\"9898\" img_size=\"full\" alignment=\"center\" css_animation=\"bottom-to-top\"][vc_single_image image=\"9895\" img_size=\"full\" alignment=\"center\" css_animation=\"bottom-to-top\"][vc_single_image image=\"9872\" img_size=\"full\" alignment=\"center\" css_animation=\"bottom-to-top\"][vc_single_image image=\"9870\" img_size=\"full\" alignment=\"center\" css_animation=\"bottom-to-top\"][/ultimate_carousel][/vc_column][/vc_row]', 'Engaging Futures Home', '', 'inherit', 'closed', 'closed', '', '18-revision-v1', '', '', '2020-11-14 17:53:46', '2020-11-14 07:53:46', '', 18, 'http://localhost:8888/wordpress/2020/11/14/18-revision-v1/', 0, 'revision', '', 0),

We are a consulting firm based in Australia.</p>\r\nWe facilitate aspirational visions for people who hope to create a better world. We help people to explore essential and sustainable futures and to discover changes occurring in all systems. Dr. Russo, our Managing Director works with 10 domains constantly in flux and change: Social, economic, legislative, environmental, consumption, transport, futures, governance, polity and technology.\r\n\r\nIt is the transformational stories of ourselves and others that integrate - sometimes through negotiation and optimisation - to generate our possible and preferred futures. We create the preferred and alternative futures scenarios that offer innovation from which sustainability becomes more possible.\r\n\r\nWe bring many futures tools and methods to facilitate enquiry into what works and what should remain the same and what could be many generations better.\r\n\r\nOur pathway over the past ten years was influenced by great people, institutions and alternative ideas and actions. Engaging Futures has been inspired by working alongside leaders of organisations such as the United Nations, Australian and overseas universities, national, State and local governments, industry, commerce and community organisations.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width=\"1/2\"][info_circle edge_radius=\"180\" start_degree=\"90\" eg_padding=\"60\" icon_size=\"18\" img_icon_size=\"18\" icon_show=\"not-show\" content_bg=\"#101010\" content_color=\"#ffffff\" eg_br_style=\"solid\" eg_br_width=\"2\" eg_border_color=\"#dddddd\" auto_slide=\"on\" auto_slide_duration=\"5\" highlight_style=\"info-circle-pulse\" icon_launch=\"easeOutBounce\" icon_launch_duration=\"1\" icon_launch_delay=\"0.2\" responsive_breakpoint=\"800\"][info_circle_item info_title=\"Futures Methods and Tools\" info_icon=\"Defaults-home\" icon_bg_color=\"#101010\" icon_color=\"#ffffff\"]Qualified in applying futures methods to issues, especially governance and strategic planning.[/info_circle_item][info_circle_item info_title=\"Delivered with flair\" info_icon=\"Defaults-user\" icon_bg_color=\"#101010\" icon_color=\"#ffffff\"]All of our presentations and courses have excited and inspired our audiences[/info_circle_item][info_circle_item info_title=\"100% Ready\" info_icon=\"Defaults-cogs gears\" icon_bg_color=\"#101010\" icon_color=\"#ffffff\"]We are 100% Ready to consult you and to help you transform, from A to Z[/info_circle_item][info_circle_item info_title=\"Award Winning\" info_icon=\"Defaults-group users\" icon_bg_color=\"#101010\" icon_color=\"#ffffff\"]We are award-winning futures journal article authors and government projects award winners.[/info_circle_item][info_circle_item info_title=\"New Technology\" info_icon=\"Defaults-flask\" icon_bg_color=\"#101010\" icon_color=\"#ffffff\"]Fantastic technological innovations can help but can also accelerate change.[/info_circle_item][info_circle_item info_title=\"New Solutions\" info_icon=\"Defaults-umbrella\" icon_bg_color=\"#101010\" icon_color=\"#ffffff\"]How much better could your futures be with better strategies?[/info_circle_item][/info_circle][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row css=\".vc_custom_1481576227367{margin-top: 120px !important;margin-bottom: 60px !important;}\"][vc_column][ultimate_heading spacer=\"line_only\" line_height=\"40\" line_width=\"1\" spacer_margin=\"margin-bottom:40px;\"][/ultimate_heading][vc_custom_heading text=\"Our Vision\" font_container=\"tag:h2|font_size:44px|text_align:center\" use_theme_fonts=\"yes\"][vc_custom_heading text=\"WORLD PEACE, SUSTAINABILITY, JOBS WE LOVE?

We help people to explore essential and sustainable futures and to discover changes occurring in all systems. Dr. Russo, our Managing Director works with 10 domains constantly in flux and change: Social, economic, legislative, environmental, consumption, transport, futures, governance, polity and technology.\r\n\r\nIt is the transformational stories of ourselves and others that integrate - sometimes through negotiation and optimisation - to generate our possible and preferred futures. We create the preferred and alternative futures scenarios that offer innovation from which sustainability becomes more possible.\r\n\r\nWe bring many futures tools and methods to facilitate enquiry into what works and what should remain the same and what could be many generations better.\r\n\r\nOur pathway over the past ten years was influenced by great people, institutions and alternative ideas and actions.

This \'both-and\' perspective is especially useful in reconciling classical dichotimies such as agency (individuals can influence the future) and structure (structures define individuals and limit what is possible)\".</h6>\r\n<h6 style=\"text-align: left;\">- \"While globalisation has not suddenly developed a soft heart, the agenda now includes how we know the world and how these knowings are complicit in the disasters around us. This has led to calls to move from strategy as the defining metaphor of the world system [strategy as global structure] to health, or inner and outer balance\".</h6>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n&nbsp;</blockquote>\r\n[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=\"30px\"][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/vc_column][vc_column width=\"1/2\" el_class=\"wide-box-mobile\"][vc_single_image image=\"61\" img_size=\"full\" alignment=\"right\"][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row seperator_enable=\"seperator_enable_value\" seperator_type=\"triangle_svg_seperator\" seperator_position=\"bottom_seperator\" seperator_svg_height=\"60\" seperator_shape_background=\"#ffffff\" css=\".vc_custom_1481752768718{margin-bottom: 100px !important;padding-top: 120px !important;}\"][vc_column][vc_empty_space height=\"60px\"][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row bg_type=\"bg_color\" bg_override=\"ex-full\" css=\".vc_custom_1481576396754{padding-top: 80px !important;padding-bottom: 60px !important;}\" bg_color_value=\"#101010\"][vc_column width=\"1/4\"][/vc_column][vc_column width=\"1/2\"][vc_custom_heading text=\"Our hope is that the pathway to the future will be brilliantly lit for the next generation, with the fullness of today\'s knowledge and wisdom.\" font_container=\"tag:p|font_size:15px|text_align:center|color:%23cecece|line_height:25px\" use_theme_fonts=\"yes\"][vc_empty_space height=\"10px\"][vc_btn title=\"CONTACT US\" style=\"outline-custom\" outline_custom_color=\"#ffffff\" outline_custom_hover_background=\"#ffffff\" outline_custom_hover_text=\"#101010\" shape=\"square\" size=\"xs\" align=\"center\" link=\"url:http%3A%2F%2Flocalhost%3A8888%2Fwordpress%2Fcontact-us%2F|title:Contact%20Us\"][/vc_column][vc_column width=\"1/4\"][/vc_column][/vc_row]', 'Engaging Futures Home', '', 'inherit', 'closed', 'closed', '', '18-revision-v1', '', '', '2020-11-16 15:54:17', '2020-11-16 05:54:17', '', 18, 'http://localhost:8888/wordpress/2020/11/16/18-revision-v1/', 0, 'revision', '', 0);

We create the preferred and alternative futures scenarios that offer innovation from which sustainability becomes more possible.\r\n\r\nWe bring many futures tools and methods to facilitate enquiry into what works and what should remain the same and what could be many generations better.\r\n\r\nOur pathway over the past ten years was influenced by great people, institutions and alternative ideas and actions. Engaging Futures has been inspired by working alongside leaders of organisations such as the United Nations, Australian and overseas universities, national, State and local governments, industry, commerce and community organisations.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width=\"1/2\"][info_circle edge_radius=\"180\" start_degree=\"90\" eg_padding=\"60\" icon_size=\"18\" img_icon_size=\"18\" icon_show=\"not-show\" content_bg=\"#101010\" content_color=\"#ffffff\" eg_br_style=\"solid\" eg_br_width=\"2\" eg_border_color=\"#dddddd\" auto_slide=\"on\" auto_slide_duration=\"5\" highlight_style=\"info-circle-pulse\" icon_launch=\"easeOutBounce\" icon_launch_duration=\"1\" icon_launch_delay=\"0.2\" responsive_breakpoint=\"800\"][info_circle_item info_title=\"Futures Methods and Tools\" info_icon=\"Defaults-home\" icon_bg_color=\"#101010\" icon_color=\"#ffffff\"]Qualified in applying futures methods to issues, especially governance and strategic planning.[/info_circle_item][info_circle_item info_title=\"Delivered with flair\" info_icon=\"Defaults-user\" icon_bg_color=\"#101010\" icon_color=\"#ffffff\"]All of our presentations and courses have excited and inspired our audiences[/info_circle_item][info_circle_item info_title=\"100% Ready\" info_icon=\"Defaults-cogs gears\" icon_bg_color=\"#101010\" icon_color=\"#ffffff\"]We are 100% Ready to consult you and to help you transform, from A to Z[/info_circle_item][info_circle_item info_title=\"Award Winning\" info_icon=\"Defaults-group users\" icon_bg_color=\"#101010\" icon_color=\"#ffffff\"]We are award-winning futures journal article authors and government projects award winners.[/info_circle_item][info_circle_item info_title=\"New Technology\" info_icon=\"Defaults-flask\" icon_bg_color=\"#101010\" icon_color=\"#ffffff\"]Fantastic technological innovations can help but can also accelerate change.[/info_circle_item][info_circle_item info_title=\"New Solutions\" info_icon=\"Defaults-umbrella\" icon_bg_color=\"#101010\" icon_color=\"#ffffff\"]How much better could your futures be with better strategies?[/info_circle_item][/info_circle][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row css=\".vc_custom_1481576227367{margin-top: 120px !important;margin-bottom: 60px !important;}\"][vc_column][ultimate_heading spacer=\"line_only\" line_height=\"40\" line_width=\"1\" spacer_margin=\"margin-bottom:40px;\"][/ultimate_heading][vc_custom_heading text=\"Our Vision\" font_container=\"tag:h2|font_size:44px|text_align:center\" use_theme_fonts=\"yes\"][vc_custom_heading text=\"WORLD PEACE, SUSTAINABILITY, JOBS WE LOVE?

This \'both-and\' perspective is especially useful in reconciling classical dichotimies such as agency (individuals can influence the future) and structure (structures define individuals and limit what is possible)\".</h6>\r\n<h6 style=\"text-align: left;\">- \"While globalisation has not suddenly developed a soft heart, the agenda now includes how we know the world and how these knowings are complicit in the disasters around us. This has led to calls to move from strategy as the defining metaphor of the world system [strategy as global structure] to health, or inner and outer balance\".</h6>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n&nbsp;</blockquote>\r\n[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=\"30px\"][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/vc_column][vc_column width=\"1/2\" el_class=\"wide-box-mobile\"][vc_single_image image=\"61\" img_size=\"full\" alignment=\"right\"][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row seperator_enable=\"seperator_enable_value\" seperator_type=\"triangle_svg_seperator\" seperator_position=\"bottom_seperator\" seperator_svg_height=\"60\" seperator_shape_background=\"#ffffff\" css=\".vc_custom_1481752768718{margin-bottom: 100px !important;padding-top: 120px !important;}\"][vc_column][vc_empty_space height=\"60px\"][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row bg_type=\"bg_color\" bg_override=\"ex-full\" css=\".vc_custom_1481576396754{padding-top: 80px !important;padding-bottom: 60px !important;}\" bg_color_value=\"#101010\"][vc_column width=\"1/4\"][/vc_column][vc_column width=\"1/2\"][vc_custom_heading text=\"Our hope is that the pathway to the future will be brilliantly lit for the next generation, with the fullness of today\'s knowledge and wisdom.\" font_container=\"tag:p|font_size:15px|text_align:center|color:%23cecece|line_height:25px\" use_theme_fonts=\"yes\"][vc_empty_space height=\"10px\"][vc_btn title=\"CONTACT US\" style=\"outline-custom\" outline_custom_color=\"#ffffff\" outline_custom_hover_background=\"#ffffff\" outline_custom_hover_text=\"#101010\" shape=\"square\" size=\"xs\" align=\"center\" link=\"url:http%3A%2F%2Flocalhost%3A8888%2Fwordpress%2Fcontact-us%2F|title:Contact%20Us\"][/vc_column][vc_column width=\"1/4\"][/vc_column][/vc_row]', 'Engaging Futures Home', '', 'inherit', 'closed', 'closed', '', '18-revision-v1', '', '', '2020-11-16 16:21:18', '2020-11-16 06:21:18', '', 18, 'http://localhost:8888/wordpress/2020/11/16/18-revision-v1/', 0, 'revision', '', 0),

This \'both-and\' perspective is especially useful in reconciling classical dichotimies such as agency (individuals can influence the future) and structure (structures define individuals and limit what is possible)\".</h6>\r\n<h6 style=\"text-align: left;\">- \"While globalisation has not suddenly developed a soft heart, the agenda now includes how we know the world and how these knowings are complicit in the disasters around us. This has led to calls to move from strategy as the defining metaphor of the world system [strategy as global structure] to health, or inner and outer balance\".</h6>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n&nbsp;</blockquote>\r\n[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=\"30px\"][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/vc_column][vc_column width=\"1/2\" el_class=\"wide-box-mobile\"][vc_single_image image=\"61\" img_size=\"full\" alignment=\"right\"][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row seperator_enable=\"seperator_enable_value\" seperator_type=\"triangle_svg_seperator\" seperator_position=\"bottom_seperator\" seperator_svg_height=\"60\" seperator_shape_background=\"#ffffff\" css=\".vc_custom_1481752768718{margin-bottom: 100px !important;padding-top: 120px !important;}\"][vc_column][vc_empty_space height=\"60px\"][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row bg_type=\"bg_color\" bg_override=\"ex-full\" css=\".vc_custom_1481576396754{padding-top: 80px !important;padding-bottom: 60px !important;}\" bg_color_value=\"#101010\"][vc_column width=\"1/4\"][/vc_column][vc_column width=\"1/2\"][vc_custom_heading text=\"Our hope is that the pathway to the future will be brilliantly lit for the next generation, with the fullness of today\'s knowledge and wisdom.\" font_container=\"tag:p|font_size:15px|text_align:center|color:%23cecece|line_height:25px\" use_theme_fonts=\"yes\"][vc_empty_space height=\"10px\"][vc_btn title=\"CONTACT US\" style=\"outline-custom\" outline_custom_color=\"#ffffff\" outline_custom_hover_background=\"#ffffff\" outline_custom_hover_text=\"#101010\" shape=\"square\" size=\"xs\" align=\"center\" link=\"url:http%3A%2F%2Flocalhost%3A8888%2Fwordpress%2Fcontact-us%2F|title:Contact%20Us\"][/vc_column][vc_column width=\"1/4\"][/vc_column][/vc_row]', 'Engaging Futures Home', '', 'inherit', 'closed', 'closed', '', '18-revision-v1', '', '', '2020-11-16 16:49:17', '2020-11-16 06:49:17', '', 18, 'http://localhost:8888/wordpress/2020/11/16/18-revision-v1/', 0, 'revision', '', 0);

We help people to explore essential and sustainable futures and to discover changes occurring in all systems. Dr. Russo, our Managing Director works with 10 domains constantly in flux and change: Social, economic, legislative, environmental, consumption, transport, futures, governance, polity and technology.\r\n\r\nIt is the transformational stories of ourselves and others that integrate - sometimes through negotiation and optimisation - to generate our possible and preferred futures. We create the preferred and alternative futures scenarios that offer innovation from which sustainability becomes more possible.\r\n\r\nWe bring many futures tools and methods to facilitate enquiry into what works and what should remain the same and what could be many generations better.\r\n\r\nOur pathway over the past ten years was influenced by great people, institutions and alternative ideas and actions. Engaging Futures has been inspired by working alongside leaders of organisations such as the United Nations, Australian and overseas universities, national, State and local governments, industry, commerce and community organisations.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width=\"1/2\"][info_circle edge_radius=\"180\" start_degree=\"90\" eg_padding=\"60\" icon_size=\"18\" img_icon_size=\"18\" icon_show=\"not-show\" content_bg=\"#101010\" content_color=\"#ffffff\" eg_br_style=\"solid\" eg_br_width=\"2\" eg_border_color=\"#dddddd\" auto_slide=\"on\" auto_slide_duration=\"5\" highlight_style=\"info-circle-pulse\" icon_launch=\"easeOutBounce\" icon_launch_duration=\"1\" icon_launch_delay=\"0.2\" responsive_breakpoint=\"800\"][info_circle_item info_title=\"Futures Methods and Tools\" info_icon=\"Defaults-home\" icon_bg_color=\"#101010\" icon_color=\"#ffffff\"]Qualified in applying futures methods to issues, especially governance and strategic planning.[/info_circle_item][info_circle_item info_title=\"Delivered with flair\" info_icon=\"Defaults-user\" icon_bg_color=\"#101010\" icon_color=\"#ffffff\"]All of our presentations and courses have excited and inspired our audiences[/info_circle_item][info_circle_item info_title=\"100% Ready\" info_icon=\"Defaults-cogs gears\" icon_bg_color=\"#101010\" icon_color=\"#ffffff\"]We are 100% Ready to consult you and to help you transform, from A to Z[/info_circle_item][info_circle_item info_title=\"Award Winning\" info_icon=\"Defaults-group users\" icon_bg_color=\"#101010\" icon_color=\"#ffffff\"]We are award-winning futures journal article authors and government projects award winners.[/info_circle_item][info_circle_item info_title=\"New Technology\" info_icon=\"Defaults-flask\" icon_bg_color=\"#101010\" icon_color=\"#ffffff\"]Fantastic technological innovations can help but can also accelerate change.[/info_circle_item][info_circle_item info_title=\"New Solutions\" info_icon=\"Defaults-umbrella\" icon_bg_color=\"#101010\" icon_color=\"#ffffff\"]How much better could your futures be with better strategies?[/info_circle_item][/info_circle][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row css=\".vc_custom_1481576227367{margin-top: 120px !important;margin-bottom: 60px !important;}\"][vc_column][ultimate_heading spacer=\"line_only\" line_height=\"40\" line_width=\"1\" spacer_margin=\"margin-bottom:40px;\"][/ultimate_heading][vc_custom_heading text=\"Our Vision\" font_container=\"tag:h2|font_size:44px|text_align:center\" use_theme_fonts=\"yes\"][vc_custom_heading text=\"EQUALITY OF OPPORTUNITY, SUSTAINABILITY, JOBS WE LOVE?
