FIF Series EP 65 - World Building - Part 4 - Creating Future Cultures & Societies

We explore how worldbuilding in foresight must consider the cultures and societies of the future, not just technology and economics. Super-shifts like eco-awakening and digital transformation are fundamentally reshaping cultural values, social interactions, and concepts of identity and community.

• Culture defines how we interact, what we value, and how we build communities
• Super-shifts are profound structural evolutions altering how societies function and understand themselves
• Eco-awakening transforms social values toward localism, circular economies, and collective responsibility
• Digital transformation changes our understanding of work, relationships, and concepts of presence
• Effective worldbuilding requires identifying relevant super-shifts for your organization
• Consider specific cultural implications of these shifts on values, norms, and interactions
• Engage diverse perspectives to ensure comprehensive, inclusive future scenarios
• Balance visionary thinking with practical implementation
• Regularly update cultural scenarios as new signals emerge
