This original, fast, flexible, and cost-effective approach is based on weak signals followed by dynamic scenarios.
Since 1995, he has regularly spoken at companies and organizations to help them envision their futures through a variety of keynote lectures.

Philippe is here to open minds, break conventions, and refresh your perspective to create innovation and avoid imitation. Through weak signals, Philippe proves to his audience what is possible—showing, for instance, how observing one's environment or reading the press reveals surprising ideas about the future. Through the dynamic scenarios method, he allows everyone to discover future hypotheses previously deemed impossible, demonstrating clearly that the greatest risk is not taking any risk at all.

Philippe is highly valued for the realism of his talks and the practical solutions they provide. He leaves strategic choices to the specialists.
