I just read Thucydides' History of the Peloponnesian War & it's my new answer for 'the best book I've recently read' as a foresight strategist. Futurists inform strategy by bringing together insight, hindsight, and careful foresight.

2018 to 2019. My phone cases reflect stability over discontinuity. Resilience over new. Story over technology.
What if some of the most visionary, creative, & compassionate technologists came together with thought leaders, scientists, and investors helping to shape what’s coming, envision the future they want to make happen, and then crafted a plan to bring that about?
Join the Foresight Institute’s Vision Weekend 2018 to help a visionary force of technologists and more roadmap a grand future.
Vision Weekend is a gathering of the most visionary, creative, and compassionate technologists, thought leaders, scientists, and investors - coming together to shape the advance of technology in the right direction, and steer toward positive futures. It’s happening, Dec 1-2 in San Francisco.
Caesar's The Civil War from Joe Murphy Librarian Futurist on Vimeo.
I read Julius Caesar’s The Civil War to round out my strategy learning. Written yes from the victor’s point of view but when Caesar was still a lion. This Monterey beach at Asilomar was the perfect setting to finish Caesar’s account of the civil war he waged against Pompey. My takeaways - the value of history in strategy. “Stiffening them to face the future” “Grave events in war being often determined by the slightest of accidents” “There is a power which mighty though it be in other spheres is mightiest of all in war. Working most momentous changes by incidents most trivial. We mean then the power of fortune.”
My answer as a professional futurist to the question of “What is the best way to foresee things?”

Great futures for all stakeholders and consideration of all future stakeholders.
Values statement: Great futures for all stakeholders and consideration of all future stakeholders.
Here I outline the values guiding my work as a futurist. These ethics are as informed as my background as a librarian as they are by the responsibility I feel to use what I’ve learned through an MBA and as a professional futurist.
“Joe Murphy - Library as Future“ Joe Murphy Librarian presenting at the State Library of New South Wales in 2014 about impactful trends for libraries and futurist management strategy issues.
I Am a Social Librarian - Joe Murphy Librarian and New Zealand Libraries 2014
I now divide my life as before and after I read Plutarch’s Lives. Foresight requires hindsight and the judgement of history.
“Explosive”—The Washington Post“Devastating”—The New Yorker“Unprecedented”—CNN THE INSIDE STORY ON PRESIDENT TRUMP, AS ONLY BOB WOODWARD ...
If you are not afraid yet, you will be. One of the most powerful takeaways from this shocking book for me was Gary Cohn (Trump’s Director of the National Economic Council) reflection that “the president had never been in a business where he had to do long-term strategic thinking”. A lack of learned and refined foresight is dangerous in a leader. Did I hear that a library was not carrying this book and how was that resolved?

Through curiosity and strategy, Joe Murphy is a futurist, informed by experience as a librarian and expert researcher. This unique combination makes Joe an passionate strategist.
I volunteered at the Primer 18 conference to get outside of my strategic foresight wheelhouse and I learned about speculative futures and speculative design from inspiring designers, strategists, and futurists. What a great community and event.
A sage at the intersection of Silicon Valley and hippiedom can offer cultural guidance.
“The Man Who Changed the World, Twice” NYTimes op ed about Stewart Brand of the Long Now Foundation by David Brooks.
I am a member of and I volunteer for Brand’s Long Now foundation because as a futurist, I prioritize the wider picture the “big here” and I consider my responsibility for longer timeframes of the “long now.”
4/5: Comey's memoir is a good book about ethical leadership in addition to insights about the law enforcement community's perspectives on the Trump fiascos. I was forced to confront in this book the unexpected paradox of decision making when one's core values face off against a complex situation. We learn how and why to trust Comey and learn great leadership insights from him (visiting every FBI employee on his visits for instance). In my opinion, Comey reveals in his thought process that his letting us down was not in his values, but in his lack of finesse within a complex system and the pos...
When ethical leadership runs up against a complex situation. How far can a core value take us when reality offers discontinuity?
