Futures Cone

The Futures Cone is a visual tool used to explore possible, probable, and preferred future scenarios. Imagine a cone where the narrow tip represents a specific point in time. As you move outward, the cone widens to show various potential futures. The innermost section includes likely outcomes based on current trends, while the outer sections represent more uncertain or imaginative possibilities. This concept helps individuals and organizations think critically about what could happen and prepare for different future scenarios, allowing for strategic planning and innovation.
