Future Backwards

Future Backwards is a strategic planning method that starts by envisioning a desired future goal, then works backward to identify the necessary steps and milestones to achieve that outcome. Instead of forecasting from the present forward, it reverse-engineers the path, helping teams clarify what needs to happen today and in the near future to reach long-term objectives. This approach encourages innovative thinking by imagining different future scenarios and designing pathways to make them a reality, aligning actions with long-term aspirations effectively.
