I help organisations become future-fit. #Mindcandy scenario prompts are part of that. They are designed to stretch your imagination, sharpen situational awareness, and spark opportunity thinking. Find out more here.
Scenario Prompts – 5 November 2025
The scenario prompt for today is moonshots or loonshots. The argument that every company should have at least one loon shot. Similar to the thinking in “The day after tomorrow” by Peter Hinssen (a classic). Your organisation needs to be solid, fluid and super fluid all a the same time. Loonshot is the superfluid part. Pick one. It will keep your future fit.
The other prompts to expand your lens today are:
- You are the upgrade, a summary of 25 books about AI, the conclusion is augmented natural intelligence as the way forward
- Robotic clothing
- Branding and attention
- The future of dying
- 4D printing
- Consciousness
- Mining on the moon
- Robot police officer in Granada, Spain
