Past events

The Liminal Leader

How to lead when the old world hasn’t quite disappeared and the new one hasn’t arrived

The old ways of working and leading have not altogether disappeared. And at the same time there are new expectations and possibilities shaping what comes next.

This is the liminal space, a transitional time and territory between what is known and what is just beyond. It can feel uncertain, ambiguous and uncomfortable, very much a VUCA experience.

Put the Future on the Agenda

Why Futures Thinking Belongs at every Monday morning meeting

Our organisations may be good at solving today’s problems but are we making space to think clearly about the decisions that will shape tomorrow? Not just prepare for tomorrow, but actually shape it?

Testimonials from Clients

Rated 5 out of 5

I've just seen Charlotte present at a virtual conference and she was brilliant. It's always hard to keep the attention of an audience on Zoom and Charlotte had such an interesting presentation that people could not tune out for even a minute. As a futurist, she got me thinking about my business and what my next steps would be for me. If you are looking for an engaging speaker, Charlotte Kemp is the one for you.

I have attended webinars hosted by Charlotte and I have found them to be detailed, insightful, and useful for both professionals as well as people who are just beginning their futures journey. The sessions are moderated in a way that participants also get to put forward their viewpoints. I strongly recommend working with her and look forward to more learning events with her in the near future.

Charlotte presented her concept of " A Map, Compass and Guide to managing the future" to TFG's entire Marketing community. Her talk was both insightful and inspiring - we all gained something that we could implement, be it in our work or personal lives. She provided us with a solid set of tools so that one can face the future with more confidence, make more informed decisions, and feel some peace and certainty in the midst of other people’s chaos. Charlotte made 'preparing for future change' seem so easy to do. It takes real smarts to make something potentially so complex seem so easy/simple.
