19. Scenarios for Co-creation of the Future with Effectuation

Scenarios for Co-creation of the Future with Effectuation
customer-centric design thinking (Boerman, 2018). Economies require less
worker skills for the efficient construction of products and delivery of services
at scale, and increasingly depend on innovation, entrepreneurship, and other
forms of creativity that rely on capabilities such as critical thinking, emotional
intelligence, and collaboration. Worker and organizational resilience is then
built by equipping workers with tools and strategies to adapt to a range of
uncertain futures (Deloitte, 2020, pp. 73, 75). The shift from functional hierarchies
to team-centric and network-based organizational models was seen as
important or very important by 65 percent of the organizations in Deloitte´s
2019 Global Human Capital Trends report (p. 54). In these teams and networks,
effectuators will be able to forge partnerships with people and organizations
willing to make real pre-commitments to new ventures.
5. Four Scenarios
Based on the two driving forces for effectuation (section 3.4) and trends
(section 4), four future scenarios for co-creation of the future with effectuation
are developed (see figure 2).
