Welcome to the show where we discuss how to transform and share strategies for organizational and personal transformation!

In our this conversation, we spoke about the idea of choosing a life for yourself and owning your own future. Our observation is that people often don't do that. Perhaps the reason for that is that they just don't know how. So today we will be talking about a process that Ray has developed over decades, called Strategic Futuring. Listen in to find out how this helpful strategy can assist you in taking charge of your own future.

Strategic Futuring is a process that Ray created and on the show today he shares an overview of the process and why it works. He also explains how it can be used by people to help them to own their life and their future. This episode will have proven techniques that can help you begin to own your own life and become the author of your own story.
