Human will involve us in a future scenario workshop, as well as share company cases from his work. A couple of days ahead of the meeting, all participants will receive an email with a small task to prepare for the workshop. 

Some of the questions we will touch upon at the workshop will be: 

  • How can companies position themselves towards the green agenda (and avoid green washing)? 
  • What to communicate - in a new reality? (impact, values, etc.) 
  • How to balance the communication between several target groups: customers, co-workers, communities and nature? 
  • How do we communicate in an honest way, "beyond the climate elite"? 
  • What is the importance of involvement 3rd parts, get external input, interact with the surroundings?
