Foresight & Strategy

The web of questions facing leaders is fluid and complex.

Pandemics; increasingly crowded, volatile, and digitally disrupted markets; supply chain disruptions; geo-political and social upheaval and environmental challenges occupy and often dominate the minds of all leaders.

With demanding, environmentally, and socially conscious consumers four times more likely to buy from a purpose-driven business – new market and product success, talent retention and consumer attention depend on finding new business models that benefit both people and planet. Enhance your preparedness and foresight; build nimble, inspiring, and bold strategies or leverage opportunities to adapt, grow, innovate and lead.

We help you:

Explore market dynamics, trends, best-practice, and competitive landscapes
Model a range of futures - the ones we’d like and the ones we don’t
Co-create, evaluate, and select strategic options
Assess the organisation’s ability to realise anticipated outcomes
Develop compelling narratives for stakeholder engagement
Plan and deliver the transformation beside you

Combining Foresight and Strategy with our full capabilities, our team will work beside you to create and realise the differentiating strategic vision that will galvanise your organisation and its stakeholders for enduring value and purposeful impact.

Case study

Taking the lead on socially responsible automation

Xynteo was engaged by a leading automation business that recognised they had a strategic opportunity and responsibility to be a leader in this space, to develop recommendations for action.

Moving from out-of-the-box thinking to out-of-the-box doing is absolutely key - but there's no way if we don't work on this together.
