“Here’s to the crazy ones. The misfits. The rebels. The troublemakers. The round pegs in the square holes. The ones who see things differently … Maybe they have to be crazy. How else can you stare at an empty canvas and see a work of art? Or sit in silence and hear a song that’s never been written? Or gaze at a red planet and see a laboratory on wheels? We make tools for these kinds of people. While some see them as the crazy ones, we see genius. Because the people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world, are the ones who do.” - Steve Jobs KGH Proprietary

Explores and remediates the fact that many emerging threats, challenges, and scenarios are not accurately identified or categorized by traditional organizational processes. Facilitated thematic and conceptual excursions help expose disruptive threats which may not fit the value chain, innovation cycle, or patterns of traditional threats.
