Shaping futures - strategically explore, design and negotiate future scenarios with Design Futuring

What can you expect?

In his lecture, Benedikt Groß will provide insights into the concept of Design Futuring - a new field of activity for designers whose central mission is to enable stakeholders from all areas of society to use the means of design to imagine and negotiate different (desirable) futures. The focus is on the participatory design of future scenarios that are tangible, tangible and tangible in order to motivate decision-makers from Business and Management, politics and society to act. In a structured creative process, various methods from design, futurology, coaching and strategic management enable an analytical and systematic examination of many future scenarios. Different creativity tools expand the imagination for "better" future scenarios that portray the everyday lives of normal people. Because there is no such thing as a seemingly inevitable future.
