As the Futurist Leader® Déborah uses a broad spectrum of knowledge, to decipher how technologies and practices can either be innovated or leveraged in intelligent and ethical ways right now, or in the future. She  blends research with her own knowledge and new information to predict trends, before considering strategy for the future. She has a particular ability to see most scenarios like a map, either looking down at an overall view, or as a tree branching out with different scenarios, options, risks, benefits and solutions. She then finds an optimal pathway to a goal or solution, using a blend of logic and creativity.  She has the ability see patterns and make interesting connections, which helps when formulating a model or roadmap with business, creative and logical actions and ideas, as well as for disaster prevention.
