Shaping the Future with Imagination, André Desmet, Ex CEO

Shapership is a concept we invented to open new windows in our mind. It helps us redraw our mental maps and get to place we haven’t imagined before. Shapership makes radically different futures visible, desirable and actionable.

Among other things, we spread this concept through consultancy, using a “Strategic Futuring” approach. It helps purpose-driven people and teams escape the repetition of the same old solutions and explore the Future with Creative Imagination, expanded perspectives, bold Thinking and Unconventional wisdom to shape radically different and desirable Futures. This opens completely new mental and concrete spaces for Innovation and helps them to build the Future on Lucidity as well as on Transformative Visions.

A few years ago, we were very lucky to cooperate with a visionary, courageous and humble CEO: Andre Desmet. He was leading the strategic transformation of a famous waterproofing company. Together, we shifted the company from a Manufacturer of roofing membranes to an innovation hot house with pioneering new activities and products (such as the first Cradle to Cradle certified vegetal roofing membrane), a  revolutionary business Model, and a new company culture. As a result, the Turnover was multiplied by 5 in 3 years.

In this short video, he gives a testimonial on the impact this collaboration had on him, personally and professionally. Get in touch with us to learn more about the Art of Shaping the Future.
