Alaska Economic Futures

As Alaska’s organizations look ahead to a future shaped by rapid change and persistent uncertainty, Vision Foresight Strategy is proud to present our newest resource: Alaska Economic Futures - a free foresight and strategic planning resource for organizations in Alaska.

This resource is designed to help leadership teams across Alaska stress-test their strategies, spark meaningful conversations, and prepare for whatever the next decade may bring.

What's Inside:

Four scenario forecasts exploring possible futures for Alaska’s economy from 2026 to 2034
An introduction to strategic foresight and its value for organizational planning
Analysis of key trends and challenges shaping Alaska’s economic outlook, including energy, demographics, climate risks, and federal policy
Guidance on how leadership teams can use scenario planning to stress-test strategies, prepare for disruption, and spark strategic conversations
Practical actions and discussion prompts for policy makers, business leaders, and nonprofit organizations

For those not familiar with foresight, these scenarios are not predictions, nor do they represent the full scope of strategic foresight work. Instead, they offer a solid starting point for leadership teams to discuss, debate, and build upon. Use them to stress-test your current strategy, prepare for disruption, envision new possibilities, and monitor signals of change.
