Future Intelligence is the ability to perceive possible futures, to connect with the best possible one—and to make clear and powerful decisions in the present based on that.
Artificial intelligence is changing what machines can do—and with it, the question of what capabilities we as humans will need in the future.
When knowledge is available faster than ever, machines can recognize patterns, and solutions can be generated in seconds:
What kind of intelligence do humans need?
One of our most important capabilities for the future is the ability to perceive what is not yet visible. To recognize new possibilities. To distinguish them from fear, desire, and projection. And to make responsible decisions and act on them.
Because this is not just about keeping pace with the future.
It is about contributing to a future we want to live in.
For people. With nature. For all life.
We never approach the future with a blank slate.
What we have experienced and learned shapes our expectations. Those expectations influence what we pay attention to, what we consider possible, and the decisions we make.
Experience gives us direction.
And it can also limit us.
We can set new goals, develop new strategies, and make new decisions—and still see the future through the inner maps of our past.
What becomes possible when the probable is no longer the limit of our thinking?
What if you could increasingly distinguish—
when experience is guiding you—and when it is limiting what you see as possible?
when fear is warning you—and when it is narrowing your perception?
when a vision opens up the future—and when it is simply wishful thinking?
when a familiar pattern is speaking—and when something genuinely new is becoming visible?
Future Intelligence is not the ability to predict the future.
It is the ability to perceive possible futures, to connect with the best possible one—and to act responsibly in the present based on that.
Future Intelligence doesn’t come from knowledge alone.
Because knowing more about perception doesn’t necessarily change the way we perceive.
The program therefore brings together:
INSIGHT · EXPERIENCE · APPLICATION
This is not about replacing rational thinking with intuition.
It is about expanding the range of human perception—and our ability to find direction.
The Future Intelligence Program is designed for people whose decisions, insights, and work have an impact beyond the present moment.
For people who help shape change in organizations, systems, or society—and who ask not only what is feasible, but what direction they want that change to take.
For people who make decisions under uncertainty, build future-ready organizations, and want to create new solutions.
When challenges become complex, the existing solution space can reach its limits: we analyze, optimize, and recombine what we already know—and still, nothing genuinely new emerges.
Future Intelligence expands the space of possibility.
It develops our ability to perceive possibilities that were not visible within our existing ways of thinking and problem-solving—and to turn them into new decisions, developments, and innovation.
For people who work with the precision of what we know while remaining open to questions for which we do not yet have definitive answers.
Where existing models define a solution space, Future Intelligence can open our perception to possibilities that have remained invisible within that frame.
For people who support others through development, crises, and transitions—and who want to expand their professional practice by developing the ability to work with possible futures.
Not their job title. Not their industry. And not a particular worldview. A willingness to take responsibility for the future they give space to through their actions.
How we understand reality shapes what we perceive within it—and therefore which futures we are even able to imagine and perceive.
Future Intelligence is not confined to a single school of thought or a single view of reality.
It brings different traditions of knowledge and experience into dialogue:
Ways of knowing and experiencing in which human beings are understood as part of a living, relational reality—including animistic ways of understanding and relating to the world.
A perspective on the deep images, patterns, and archetypal dynamics of human experience.
A perspective on relationships, interdependencies, and the larger systems in which development takes place.
As a point of connection, a space for critical examination, and a corrective—with a clear distinction between scientific evidence, perspectives that can meaningfully connect with scientific inquiry, and our own models and working hypotheses.
The Pluriverse describes a reality in which different ways of knowing and relating to the world can coexist and connect without being reduced to a single valid perspective.
That does not mean anything goes.
It means taking different ways of knowing seriously—while also being able to distinguish between them with precision.
For Future Intelligence, this is essential.
Because every perspective also influences which possibilities we are able to perceive.
If we stay within a single map of reality, our view of possible futures remains bounded by the limits of that map.
The Pluriverse opens up that space.
Different ways of knowing broaden our perspective and allow us to resonate with a wider spectrum of possible futures.
Not to create an arbitrary abundance of possibilities. But to perceive and distinguish what might otherwise remain invisible from within a single perspective.
This expands more than our view of reality.
It expands the space of possibility.
Mysticism here does not mean leaving rationality behind.
It refers to ways of knowing and experiencing reality that are not limited to what can be understood through analytical reasoning alone.
Within a pluriversal understanding, mysticism does not stand in opposition to science.
It is a different way of knowing.
Future Intelligence does not replace one way of knowing with another. It expands our ability to move between different ways of knowing, to perceive, and to discern.
Because if the future holds more possibilities than those we can derive from what we already know, we also need the openness to perceive beyond a single map of reality.
Four consecutive Core Paths bring together:
INSIGHT · EXPERIENCE · APPLICATION
They form the foundation of the Future Intelligence Program and lead towards increasingly independent application within each participant’s professional field.
After completing the full Core Path, participants can qualify as a LamarOM Future Intelligence Practitioner.
The Core Path provides more than personal experience and knowledge. It develops practical competence.
How you apply that competence depends on your existing professional qualifications and field of work—whether you work with individuals, teams, organizations, businesses, research, or transformation processes.
Further Master Paths and Impact Paths offer opportunities for deeper exploration and specialization. They are not required in order to apply Future Intelligence.

Pioneer Circle · November 2026 – June 2027
The Pioneer Circle is the first generation of the Future Intelligence Program—a group of people opening up this new space for learning and experience together with the LamarOM Institute.
The program consists of four Core Paths and can be completed either as blended learning with in-person sessions or fully online.
November 13 – December 9, 2026
January 15 – February 10, 2027
April 2 – 28, 2027
June 4 – 30, 2027
Each Core combines live online sessions with an intensive experiential phase—either in person or online—followed by integration.
In person: Remshalden, near Stuttgart, Germany
Online: live via Zoom
Language: German · depending on the composition of the Pioneer Circle, the program may also be offered bilingually in German and English
Full session dates and organizational details are available in the Program Brochure.
The Program Brochure is still being prepared. Please request it by email.
Future Intelligence deliberately explores the boundaries of established models of thought and perception.
That is precisely why discernment, critical reflection, and professional standards are integral to the Institute’s approach.
We make a clear distinction between:
well-established scientific findings
perspectives that can meaningfully connect with scientific inquiry
models and working hypotheses developed by the LamarOM Institute
Not everything new has already been scientifically established. And not everything that remains unexplained is therefore meaningless.
What matters is not confusing the two.
DVWO CERTIFICATION · CLEAR PROGRAM STRUCTURE · DEFINED QUALIFICATION PATHWAYS · LIMITED GROUP SIZE · PROFESSIONAL FACILITATION
The LamarOM Institute creates learning and experiential spaces for developing the human capabilities we need for the future.
It brings together many years of experience in personal and organizational transformation, different traditions of knowledge, and systematic engagement with relevant scientific research.
At its heart is not the question:
How can we keep optimizing human beings?
But:
What human capabilities do we need to contribute to a future worth living?
The LamarOM Institute was founded by Lara-Marie Obermaier. More than 20 years of executive responsibility in international marketing and sales come together with more than 30 years of exploring what shapes and influences the structures we see.
Ethics · Dignity · Responsibility · Quality · Discernment
People · Nature · All Life
We cannot control every development. And we cannot predict the future.
But that does not mean we have no part in shaping it.
Don’t just ask what is probable. Discover what can become possible.
It is time to look forward to the future again.
If, while reading this, you found yourself thinking:
“I want to be able to do that.”
