  “Reflection” - What did you/we learn?
Foresight cards                     Foresight Cards information

This analysis tool helps to assess the external macro environment!

The Foresight Cards contains 125 macro forces classified into the STEEP categories (social,
technological, economical, environmental and political). Other known acronyms derived
from STEEP are: PEST, PESTLE, STEP, STEPJE, STEEPLED, DESTEP and LEPEST. The STEEP
acronym is well known and used all over the world as a basis for external analysis.

For example the STEEP cards can be used by individuals and groups to have workshops to:
• create awareness about past, current and future changes;
• stress test a business model;
• create a SWOT analysis;
• energize;
• tell a story;
• discuss certain (strategic) topics;
• think about systems and how external developments connect to each other;
• determine key-uncertainties to create future scenarios (scenario planning);
• etc. etc. etc.
