“The foresight facilitation course introduced me to a diverse set of practical tools that I can confidently apply in my own foresight practice. The sessions were not only informative but also highly engaging, bringing together participants from different parts of the world who are applying strategic foresight across a wide range of sectors.

Learning from their perspectives and experiences made the course especially valuable. The hands-on approach increased my confidence as a facilitator and reinforced the importance of strategic foresight in my own work, particularly in shaping the future of work.”

“ANTICIPATE's Foresight Facilitation course is a deeply rewarding learning experience. The warm and personalised learning environment is a standout - even though we were online it felt like we were in the room together - it was so nice to meet fellow participants from across the world, all interested in or practicing the field of futures, and to learn how to facilitate futures thinking workshops together.

I left with an incredible amount of content and resources and I am excited to extend this futures literacy across our organisation and out to the clients we support. Mathias and his team are so knowledgeable and generous in their sharing and the insights and ideas they provided and I would highly recommend this course or others to friends or colleagues.

Thank you for two great sessions!”

“Facilitation is key in Foresight and "The Foresight Facilitator" gives you some practical tips and tools to enhance your facilitation.”

“I loved being part of the ACT Futures Mosaic workshop in Copenhagen, felt curious, challenging, deeply imaginative. The shift from conversation to artefact in less than 30 minutes really did do something to the room. And the detail of using Copenhagen harbour water as a co-creator is the kind of touch I won't forget.”

"Mathias from ANTICIPATE delivered an inspiring and thought-provoking opening session for our Europe INSIGHT study visit in Copenhagen. His presentation on future trends in education provided an excellent foundation for the discussions and site visits that followed throughout the week.

The combination of strategic foresight, practical examples, and engaging discussion helped our group of education leaders broaden their perspective on the future of learning, AI, and innovation.

We greatly appreciated this contribution to the programme and would gladly recommend ANTICIPATE to organizations looking for a stimulating and forward-looking learning experience."

“The Foresight Facilitator course is a really strong starting point if you’re new to foresight, and just as valuable if you want to deepen your practice.

What I liked most is that it goes beyond theory and really puts you into the role of a facilitator, working on real cases, designing your own workshop, and learning by actually doing it. You don’t just leave with tools, but with the confidence to use them, and a network of inspiring people who are on a similar journey.”

“This ANTICIPATE Megatrends publication has been a wonderful resource.

I'm using it this semester with a wonderful group of graduate students in my Global Energy Futures course - and for many of the students this is their first experience with futures and strategic foresight methodologies - so publications like this are a brilliant resource not only in the information presented - but as an exemplar in how futures work is communicated and can be consumed and used for strategic planning.”

”This training gave me the confidence I needed to facilitate foresight. It helped me map out which methods to use in different workshop scenarios and connect theory with practice.”

"I’ve spent a few months with Mathias from ANTICIPATE through the Find Your Futures Voice program with a scope to shape up a connection between my knowledge of foresight and my psychological background into a unified coaching approach.

His extremely personalized sessions helped me to clear up the noise and assumptions about my approach to foresight, check my hunches I’ve had from observing the foresight industry, identify the focus points and set up a plan for the next 6 months.

He helped me in fleshing out my own voice coming through my thoughts and frameworks and inspired me to focus on slower, methodical and long term practice. We’ve reviewed my current offering and positioning with Mathias and his feedback was instrumental to how I will move forward further. A few critical and easy to implement ideas for my website came to me through our conversations and I’ve incorporated them already.

Mathias has a very welcoming, well-weighted communication style which resonated very well with me. His expertise, coaching approach, and personality helped me to gain confidence in places I felt a bit shaky. I’ve been going through a rough time while working with Mathias and he was most patient and supportive while my life took turns through those months.

Additionally, Mathias is super well-organized and his recaps of our conversations have been amazing for my further reflections. It’s been an extremely positive and impactful experience. If you are building your foresight practice and need to get out of your own head and get feedback from one of the top professionals in the industry, you’d be in the best hands with Mathias."

It was a pleasure to welcome Mathias from ANTICIPATE into a network of experienced and strategically minded leaders who unanimously gained both fresh and thought-provoking perspectives—as well as an awareness of the need to act on them.

Highly and warmly recommended, whether you’re looking for inspiration or positive provocation.”

Mathias and Søs brought a high level of professionalism and insight, and the tools ANTICIPATE has developed to continuously scan the megatrend horizon proved to be incredibly valuable. It was a true pleasure collaborating with them.”

Manuela Procopio

”I had the pleasure of participating in an engaging ConsilioNexus Circle, focusing on the topic “Cybersecurity: From technology to leadership responsibility.” It led to many interesting discussions and reflections on the geopolitical threat landscape, maturity levels, risk models, strategic responsibility, etc., from a wide range of small, medium, and large companies across very different industries.

Thanks to Mathias Behn Bjørnhof from ANTICIPATE for strong facilitation.”

R&D Director, Grundfos

"Mathias delivered a highly engaging and insightful 1½‑hour session for my F5 network group, and the feedback has been outstanding. His ability to combine sharp strategic perspectives with real‑world relevance made the session both inspiring and directly applicable to our daily leadership challenges.

Mathias brings a natural presence, great energy, and a clear passion for helping leaders navigate change. I can warmly recommend him and ANTICIPATE to any leadership group looking for a high‑impact session."

Anders Beck

“Thank you very much for such a wonderful workshop, Mathias!

Both my faculty and guests were in awe of both the workshop content and you.”

Wioleta Kaminska

”Participating in a Circle is a real pleasure – though that’s not to say it doesn’t require energy and presence. Taking part comes with a commitment: being in a confidential space with competent peers where current and strategically important topics are discussed across industries.

The meeting is run with a “firm hand” by Mathias from ANTICIPATE, a highly prepared facilitator, and this format increases the value of the session as the topic is explored and assessed from different sector perspectives. The sparring in a group of 5–6 people ensures that everyone gets a voice and the dynamic is maintained for the benefit of all.

Of course, the outcome depends on your own contribution – but if you do engage, the experience is extremely rewarding. I can fully confirm that.”
