SUMMARY:Future Intelligence Module 7: Communications with Senior Manag
 ement
DESCRIPTION:This is the capstone course in presenting findings derived
  from Future Intelligence to senior management at a variety of levels.
 \n\nThere is a reason more futures-research projects are not undertake
 n by organizations. While they may seem like simple, unthreatening int
 ellectual exercises with a tremendous potential to improve the organiz
 ation, they can just as easily become fodder for internal political fi
 ghts, budgetary warfare, and other counter-productive activities.\n\nO
 f course, it doesn't have to be this way. You can plan a successful ap
 proach for these kinds of essential research and innovation projects, 
 and communications is the key factor. In this final module of Future I
 ntelligence we cover the often-hidden issues of timing, presentation, 
 and communications, the secrets of truly successful foresight projects
 . Some hard-won tips will be presented such as:\n\n* Partnering with s
 ales, product management and other groups with an eye on the bottom li
 ne\n* Choosing the right buzzwords to describe the activity\n* Use of 
 social media and intranets to minimize surprise and maximize positive 
 reception in the organization\n* Types of media to proliferate around 
 the organization at various levels\n\nNow that you've completed all se
 ven modules of the Future Intelligence course - we look forward to rea
 ding about you being named CEO, appearing in TED talks, and generally 
 conquering the world while looking good trying.\n\nFor more informatio
