Introduction
The future of business and industry includes both opportunities and threats. For this reason, industrial actors need to have effective and usable methods and tools to predict possible future changes, both in their own operations and in their business environments (Korreck, 2018). Organizational foresight assumes that even if the future is uncertain, some developments can be foreseen, and thus related options for the business can be considered. This makes it possible to prepare for the future or even to more actively shape it (Cuhls, 2003).
