  • Why the study matters

    Organisations that anticipate and adapt to future shifts gain a strategic edge. The findings in this national report challenge us to rethink how foresight is used by business, government, and impact organisations.

  • What we explored

    We explored how leaders engage with uncertainty, how strategy aligns with values and what future-facing capabilities are being built or ignored.

  • What is the study about?

    Hidden In Plain Sight is a research study by Erada Advisory, Tank, and Taylor & Grace. We studied how organisational leaders across Australia plan for what’s next — and what’s needed now.
