The Power of Vision

Discovering The Future

  • Overview

    The aim

    To help people think and act differently to make a difference.


    About the programme

    This inspirational programme demonstrates that having a positive vision of the future is the most forceful motivator for change - for success - that companies, schools, communities, nations and individuals possess.

    How did a prisoner find the will to survive an Auschwitz concentration camp so he could help others find the meaning of life? How did most of the sixth graders at P.S. 121 in Harlem, where few students had finished high school, beat the odds and go on to college? How do organisations inspire employees to be more than observers, to choose to actively create their futures?

    Futurist Joel Barker shows why a shared vision makes decision-making easier, why effective visions are never expressed in numbers and why a vision must be inspiring enough to challenge each member of the vision community to grow and reach beyond their previous limits.

    Unforgettable and moving this programme will inspire the people in your organisation to think together, dream together and act together to make a difference in the world.
