Navigating the Future: Insights from Futurist, Donna Dupont
In this episode of Women Lead, host Nadia Koski engages in a thought-provoking conversation with Donna Dupont, Founder and Chief Strategist, Foresight & Design, at Purple Compass. Donna brings her skills and insights developed over 25 years working with leaders in healthcare, emergency management, government public policy, strategic planning, and program design. She has facilitated a range of foresight and design activities for clients in healthcare, emergency management, and military sectors.
Donna shares why building futures literacy is essential for navigating today’s uncertainty and complexity. We discuss how leaders can move from reactive decision-making to proactive, strategic conversations that open new opportunities. Donna also explains how understanding your mindset—and your organization’s—can help shift from fear and control to adaptability and future-focused thinking.
Three things you'll learn:
- How to build future literacy skills to navigate uncertainty.
- The importance of strategic conversations in adapting to change.
- Ways to balance short-term actions with long-term foresight.
Tune in to explore the intersection of security, foresight, and design, and how these elements can better guide us through turbulent times.
