A forum of futurists: A look back and a look ahead

Ian Wilson (Principal of Wolf Enterprises in San Rafael, California)

Strategy & Leadership

ISSN: 1087-8572

Publication date: 1 April 1999

Abstract

This article begins with a reprint of interviews from the November/December 1995 issue of Planning Review (the previous identity of Strategy & Leadership.). In those interviews, four leading futurists — Ian Wilson, Oliver Markley, Joseph Coates, and Clement Bezold — discussed the critical issues they believed were facing business leaders in the first decade of the twenty‐first century, the strategic implications of these issues, and how business leaders should respond. Their original remarks are followed by their current thoughts about what progress has been made in five years and how the critical issues may have changed in that time.
