developers of the Future Search method and are the founders of the Future
Search Network. Corporations pay a lot of money for their services, but
fortunately they have a few videos up on YouTube so you can get a taste of what
kind of material they go through when giving a seminar. Find some videos from
one or both of them and share the link to the video that you find the most
useful.
