His approach is unique in that the methodology he applies is based on complex systems theory in practice, and whole sight - a breakthrough in viewing the future. These are critical capabilities for exploring and discovering the future as change is now exponential, convergent, dynamic, interdependent, and revealing complexities that strategists and planners must understand to be successful.

Larry has worked extensively in Australia and the USA with commercial, government and NFPs.
