| Popis: | This article focuses on how organisations create knowledge about futures, and how these knowledge creation practices could be improved. The article is based on empirical data on Finnish companies as well as on conceptual work on the nature and the use of futures knowledge. The main message of the article is that the organisational practices of futures knowledge creation have a narrow and singular scope, they treat futures knowledge as a separate block and they are not based on best practices in foresight. We propose ways to improve the current knowledge creation practices and discuss the roles of foresight practitioners and public and private actors in these practices. |
