Abstract

Astrologers look to the stars. Gamblers invoke odds and luck. Stock pickers analyze companies and competitors. They want to know what happens next—and so do most of the rest of us. For students of work, peering into the future begins with assessing where we have been and where we are today. The future, though, is more than trends and interactions. It reflects choices and their consequences, intended and otherwise.
