Episode One: Bill Sharpe on Three Horizons

In episode one we meet Bill Sharpe, who tells us about his Three Horizons tool. We talk about the origins of the tool, how Bill uses it in practice and what tips he has for faciliators and practitioners looking to adopt Three Horizons in their own work.

This was an interesting and inspiring conversation! As with all our interviews it’s designed with the professional futures practitioner in mind, though if you’re new to the area this is a great place to start - Bill tells me Three Horizons is a great ‘first tool’, to help audiences understand futures, but also to equip somebody hired into a future facing role to hit the ground running on day one.

We hope you enjoy this episode. We’re new to podcasting so please bear with us through any technical bugs or oversights - most importantly please let us know what you think of the podcast, good or bad, and we’ll work on incorporating your feedback into future episodes. To our Northern Hemisphere listeners including Bill, thank you for hanging in there with this thick New Zealand accent!

And now, please enjoy our conversation with Bill Sharpe.
