You would like to structure your scenarios and thoughts about the future? You would like to formulate your future strategy in a coherent way without forgetting anything essential? You would like to at last get some clarity on the most important future management terms and communicate in a clear language about the future of your market and your company? You would like to implement future management methods and tools in the areas where they are really effective?

Use the Eltville Model of future management! It has proved its worth in more than a thousand projects.

Using phenomenological analysis, we have drawn out the essence of the meanings of the terms and their interactions, and derived a mental model and a cognitive map from them.

The Eltville Model of future management is used by companies and public institutions to support thinking and communicating about future environmental changes, the early recognition of future markets, the development of future strategies and the building up of future competence with a sound system of terms. The Eltville Model provides a comprehensive and integrated terminology. It links the requirements on scientific future management with the necessities of a company’s day-to-day business.

The Eltville Model consists of a process model that describes five different perspectives on the future (the so-called "five futures glasses") as a sequence of mental steps (for example in a workshop), and a results model, which describes the results achieved in the process as "thought objects".

The Eltville Model serves as a holistic "cognitive map" for terms such as scenario, vision, trend, wild card, assumption etc, which are frequently used in different ways. The terms used in the Eltville model are unambiguously defined based on wide phenomenological analysis, and semantically related to each other in.

The Eltville Model is a result of observation and phenomenological analysis of more than 800 workshops with management teams. It was developed by Pero Mićić and is now being developed further by the FMG employees.
