ZukunftsDesign - Innovation.Unternehmertum.Gestaltung.
Die Geschichte der Menschheit ist eine Geschichte des Fortschritts. Doch Fortschritt braucht Wagemut und Ideen. Jeder innovative Ansatz, so abwegig er anfangs klingen mag, hat das Potenzial, die Welt, wie wir sie kennen, für immer zu verändern. Neuartige Ideen stoßen aber häufig auf Ablehnung oder Geringschätzung. Kleinen und mittelständischen Unternehmen fehlt im Tagesgeschäft häufig die Zeit für eine Auseinandersetzung mit strategischen Fragestellungen. Auf diese Weise laufen sie aber Gefahr von gravierenden Veränderungen überrollt zu werden.
