Futurefit

For a number of years, I have taught an MBA elective at GIBS in South Africa on innovation for future-fitness. So what does it mean to be future-fit – as an organization, a city or a country? There are two essential components. First, you have to fit into a rapidly changing future, like a jigsaw puzzle piece, meaning you have to change too. Second, you have to be fit, like an athlete who is healthy, agile, adaptable and able to respond quickly to new challenges. This is what Darwin meant by ‘survival of the fittest’. Are you fit for the future?
