Corporate Policy

We evolved 10 principles of the Next Normal of work which govern our policies. https://vimeo.com/674448636/b3a53b86e3 We set and evolve the policy together. Key is that we do not see bricks and mortar as the only office spaces. We see it as place making, both synchronous and asynchronous, wherever those places are. We work in structured ways in Slack, Notion, Miro, Sharepoint and other spaces and seek to create a sense of mutuality and belonging, and a flow of work between those spaces. We meet every few months, either in Oxford or Cambridge, our home bases and, when we travel to work with clients, we seek to go with an extended team for an extended stay to strengthen the conviviality at the heart of our offer. Each place, and the journeys into and out of those places is seen by us as a collaboration container with structures, well held, rituals and micro-structures that hold the edges of that container and allow work to be done well together in the middle.

About

Jigsaw Foresight is a futures and foresight consultancy with homes in Oxford and Cambridge Formed in 2006 by Dr Wendy Schultz, an internationally recognised futurist, and Victoria Ward, an internationally recognised specialist in knowledge management, change, and narrative approaches. Our distinctive approach combines research-based expertise across foresight, storytelling, change, and knowledge management, with a hands-on approach, and an unswerving commitment to building foresight fluency with whomever we work. Our deep experience in the corporate, public policy, and non-profit sectors is amplified by a research and creative studio able to distil complex ideas into shareable artefacts and interactive experiences that inspire action. Our ambition, experience and radical capability is applied to challenges such as: sustainable investment; the emerging bio age; the future of machine-human relationships in knowledge working with a particular current focus on generative AI; and the future of work and leadership. Change is coming at us fast from all sides, and we want to equip the next generation of change agents. To do that, we must delve into the strange, the unfamiliar, the seemingly weird and far off, as well as the banal, invisible familiar and everyday.
