Předpovídání je nebezpečná hra, protože budoucnost není nikdy přímou lineární extrapolací současnosti. Neočekávané inovace změní i ty nejlepší plány - ale i to je lepší, než o budoucnosti nepřemýšlet vůbec. Akta budoucnosti je kniha plná provokativních předpovědí, jak se svět může v následující polovině století změnit. Richard Watson se zde zabývá zkoumáním vývoje ve společnosti, technologiích, ekonomii a podnikání a mnohdy nás překvapí zajímavými spekulacemi, co všechno by nás v budoucnu mohlo potkat. V této publikaci však nejde pouze o předpovědi. Akta budoucnosti osvobodí vaši kolektivní i individuální představivost - vše známé pak uvidíte v novém světle a vše neznámé mnohem jasněji. Zamyslíte se, kam vlastně směřujeme, kdy a zda vůbec se tam dostaneme. Kromě zábavného čtení zde naleznete i mnoho užitečných informací, které lze uplatnit při tvorbě obchodních analýz či strategickém plánování.
