Many problems in management and in life result from people's
different views on the future. People subconsciously assume that
everyone understands how they think and talk about the future in
the same way as they do. They assume that everyone is wearing the
same 'futures glasses' which often causes misunderstanding,
frustration and failure.
The five futures glasses described in this book make it easier to
see and understand more of the future:
1. The blue futures glasses are for assumptions about the probable
future of your environment
2. The red futures glasses are for possible surprises in your
environment
3. The green futures glasses are for opportunities to create a
better future
4. The yellow futures glasses are for your vision of a desired
future
5. The violet futures glasses are for your planned future and for
your actions.
The five futures glasses and the resulting "Eltville Model" bridge
the gap between everyday life and futures research. They have been
developed through research in more than a thousand workshops and
projects with non-profit organizations as well as with leading
corporations around the world, such as BOSCH, Microsoft, BAYER,
AstraZeneca, Roche, Ernst+Young, Ford, Vodafone, EADS and Nestle.
This model provides you with a road map for thinking and
communicating about the future and a comprehensive structure for
your future projects as well as your strategy. In addition, the
Eltville Model helps you to apply the common foresight tools much
more effectively.
