This course is for you.<\/p>\n<p>Humans are the only living creatures with the ability to think about and make plans for the long- term future. Even so, our brains don\u2019t always make it easy. Over the past decade, scientists have discovered a number of neurological \u201croad blocks\u201d to effective futures thinking. These glitches in the brain make it harder for us to accurately predict how we\u2019ll feel and what we\u2019re likely to do, when a particular future arrives. They lead us to make faulty assumptions about which futures are likely or unlikely to happen. And they convince us we have less power to shape and influence the future than we actually do \u2013 leaving us stuck in the present. <\/p>\n<p>In this course, you\u2019ll learn how to overcome these obstacles so you can think about the future more strategically and creatively. You\u2019ll practice simulation techniques for \u201cunsticking\u201d the mind when it comes to seeing what\u2019s possible in the future and accepting how things could be different. You\u2019ll also learn how to lead others through \u201cfirst-person future\u201d simulations, which have been shown in scientific studies to improve strategy and increase motivation and hope for the future. Along the way, leading futurists from the Institute from the Future will share some of their most challenging forecasts to help you stretch your imagination and improve your simulation skills. <\/p>\n<p>This course will ensure that you can put all of your new forecasting skills to the best possible use, by helping you nudge your brain toward more effective ways of simulating and preparing for the future.<\/p>\n<p>Many thanks to the Enlight Foundation and the Enlight Collaborative, which provided a grant to support the creation of this course.<\/p>\n<div style=\"height:45px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n<h2 class=\"has-text-align-center\">Price: Enroll For Free!<\/h2>\n<div style=\"height:45px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"wp-block-button aligncenter\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-text-color has-very-light-gray-color has-background has-vivid-red-background-color\" href=\"https:\/\/www.coursera.org\/learn\/simulation-skills\">View Class<\/a><\/div>\n<div style=\"height:55px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column\">\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><em><strong>Language:<\/strong> <\/em>English<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"wp-block-column\">\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><em><strong>Subtitles<\/strong>: <\/em>English<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p style=\"background-color:#496d89\" class=\"has-text-color has-background has-text-align-center has-very-light-gray-color\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.coursera.org\/learn\/simulation-skills\">Simulation Skills: This is Your Brain on the Future<strong> &#8211; Institute for the Future<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Description Do you want to learn how to simulate the future more creatively and more effectively?
