You will practise environmental sensing, scenario planning and managing strategic alternatives, and will be introduced to megatrends defining the contemporary work landscape, along with opportunities, threats and “black swan” events disrupting it. You will build your capability to be resilient and agile in the workplace. This unit is relevant to students of all business disciplines, preparing you for the future of work and introducing you to business capabilities to ignite your career.

Overview
This introductory business core unit provides insights on how to predict emerging futures in the contemporary workplace and how to tailor individual response strategies to future business scenarios. Grounded in an integrated mix of real-world case studies from corporate, non-profit and entrepreneurial sectors, this unit will help you to develop the mindset and skill set required to approach the future world of work equipped to succeed. You will practise environmental sensing, scenario planning and managing strategic alternatives, and will be introduced to megatrends defining the contemporary work landscape, along with opportunities, threats and “black swan” events disrupting it. You will build your capability to be resilient and agile in the workplace. This unit is relevant to students of all business disciplines, preparing you for the future of work and introducing you to business capabilities to ignite your career.
Learning Outcomes
On successful completion of this unit you will be able to:
- Demonstrate an understanding of strategies for predicting and responding to future business scenarios across a variety of real-world business contexts. [KS 1.1]Relates to: UG Business Capabilities: KS (1.1)
- Analyse a corporate, non-profit or entrepreneurial market to identify emerging business opportunities and threats using a variety of processes and approaches. [KS 1.2, HO 2.1, SE 5.2]

Action: Develop appropriate response and preparation strategies, build resilience and agility where required, identify opportunities and threats, and conduct an informed selection according to strategic alignment, feasibility, viability and desirability.
You will be guided through the unit by the following principles:
- Better to prevent a problem than solve it.
- Best to have alternative strategies than one strategy.
- Be either resilient or agile.
- Distinguish between what you could do and what you should.

Overview
This introductory business core unit provides insights on how to predict emerging futures in the contemporary workplace and how to tailor individual response strategies to future business scenarios. Grounded in an integrated mix of real-world case studies from corporate, non-profit and entrepreneurial sectors, this unit will help you to develop the mindset and skill set required to approach the future world of work equipped to succeed. You will practise environmental sensing, scenario planning and managing strategic alternatives, and will be introduced to megatrends defining the contemporary work landscape, along with opportunities, threats and “black swan” events disrupting it. You will build your capability to be resilient and agile in the workplace. This unit is relevant to students of all business disciplines, preparing you for the future of work and introducing you to business capabilities to ignite your career.
Learning Outcomes
On successful completion of this unit you will be able to:
- Demonstrate an understanding of strategies for predicting and responding to future business scenarios across a variety of real-world business contexts. [KS 1.1]Relates to: UG Business Capabilities: KS (1.1)
- Analyse a corporate, non-profit or entrepreneurial market to identify emerging business opportunities and threats using a variety of processes and approaches. [KS 1.2, HO 2.1, SE 5.2]
- Using a range of environment sensing tools and approaches, construct business recommendations and evaluate them according to their strategic alignment, feasibility, viability and desirability. [KS 1.1, HO 2.1, HO 2.2, SE 5.2]
- Report on industry trends, developments and possible scenarios in teams using professional communication and collaboration skills. [HO 2.1, PC 3.1, TS 4.2]
- Employ strategies for resilience and agility in a range of professional contexts. [TS 4.1, SE 5.2]
Content
In this unit, you will learn about:
Awareness: The predictable environmental trends and developments, and how we prepare an organisation to deal with significant, unpredictable events (so called “black swans”).
Acceptance: Assess possible future contexts in light of their relevance and severity of impact on an organisation.
Action: Develop appropriate response and preparation strategies, build resilience and agility where required, identify opportunities and threats, and conduct an informed selection according to strategic alignment, feasibility, viability and desirability.
You will be guided through the unit by the following principles:
- Better to prevent a problem than solve it.
- Best to have alternative strategies than one strategy.
- Be either resilient or agile.
- Distinguish between what you could do and what you should.
- Ensure that future actions are feasible, desired and viable.

Learning Approaches
In this unit, you will learn by engaging in opportunity- and case-based activities designed to develop your skills in analysis and decision-making. You will explore contemporary global issues and learn about future challenges and opportunities for business enterprises. In workshops, you will practise how to sense the environment, how to prepare for the next black swan event and how to conduct scenario planning to develop alternative business strategies. Beyond such toolsets, you will learn how to develop a mindset that allows you as a future leader to approach emerging scenarios prepared and with confidence in various sectorial settings.
You will be expected to attend and contribute regularly to workshops, and work through content and self-directed formative learning activities presented on the unit’s Canvas site before and after class to supplement your learning.

Academic Integrity
Students are expected to engage in learning and assessment at QUT with honesty, transparency and fairness. Maintaining academic integrity means upholding these principles and demonstrating valuable professional capabilities based on ethical foundations.
Failure to maintain academic integrity can take many forms. It includes cheating in examinations, plagiarism, self-plagiarism, collusion, and submitting an assessment item completed by another person (e.g. contract cheating). It can also include providing your assessment to another entity, such as to a person or website.
You are encouraged to make use of QUT’s learning support services, resources and tools to assure the academic integrity of your assessment. This includes the use of text matching software that may be available to assist with self-assessing your academic integrity as part of the assessment submission process.
Further details of QUT’s approach to academic integrity are outlined in the Academic integrity policy and the Student Code of Conduct. Breaching QUT’s Academic integrity policy is regarded as student misconduct and can lead to the imposition of penalties ranging from a grade reduction to exclusion from QUT.
