Description

The in-person session will include an additional 30-minute workshop following the webcast.

Anticipating future trends plays an important role in the development of new forward-thinking policies. To do so, public service organizations are increasingly recruiting in-house futurists, establishing futures teams, and applying strategic foresight to help shape resilient and adaptive policies.

This forward-looking event features applied health futurist Dr. Zayna Khayat, who will share insights from her extensive experience with futurism and offer practical strategies for integrating it into policy work, specifically for public servants.

Participants will discover how futurism can be a powerful tool for future-proofing policies and programs, ensuring they remain relevant and are able to anticipate and navigate through unpredicted change.

Speaker

  • Dr. Zayna Khayat, adjunct faculty in the Health Sector Strategy stream at the Rotman School of Management at the University of Toronto

Moderator

  • Taki Sarantakis, President, Canada School of Public Service
