During the last week of the program, seminar students returned to New York to present their original archival research. Then they switched gears and looked towards future policy implications of their historical work in a scenario building exercise also led by Dr. Betty Sue Flowers. Flowers, the former director of the Lyndon Baines Johnson Library at The University of Texas at Austin, is a leading expert in future forecasting and the guiding force behind Shell Oil’s Global Scenarios, the much emulated gold standard for corporate and government scenario projects including the National Intelligence Council’s Global Trends Reports.
