From https://futurethinkers.org/

They also have a decent podcast from the little I've watched it, with some stage yellow peeps on it.

From the little experience I've had with them, I'd put them around High Green, some Yellow on SD.  Maybe some Orange in there too.

SUMS:

15 FACTORS THAT WILL RADICALLY CHANGE THE WORLD

  1. We live in an economic bubble that will almost certainly burst.
  2.  America and Europe are likely to decline as global leaders, as Asia rises.
  3.  The divide between the rich and poor is increasing globally.
  4.  There is a trend of moving from centralization to decentralization - in technology, finance, business, government, and communication, and other fields. 
  5.  Life expectancy is increasing, while birth rates decrease globally.
  6.  More people are staying single and childless.
  7.  Young people are increasingly seeking purpose, sustainability, and spiritual meaning.
  8. There is a global mental health crisis, with ¼ of adults in the developed world suffering from depression and anxiety. 
  9. Big data has become big business, and it’s exposing our blind spots and weaknesses. Phones and social media are designed to be more addictive. Data privacy is an increasing concern.
  10. . Automation and robotics are changing the job landscape.
  11.  Artificial Intelligence is increasing in power, causing ethical concerns.
  12.  Biotech and nanotech are simultaneously a source of hope and existential risks.
  13.  Immigration is changing the face of nations. Whites will no longer be the majority of US and Europe by mid century.
  14.  There is a rise in totalitarian governments and technology companies. Surveillance is increasing.
  15.  Climate change and environmental destruction will increase natural disasters, diseases, food and water shortages, supply chain disruption, regional conflicts, and mass migration.

@Jacob Morres ... I can't remember where I came across it.  I think I was just scanning their website and saw it.  The link is above.

If you're interested in the sort of future global landscapes, meta-crisis, global human system phase shift, preparing sensemaking, etc., and the stuff the FutureThinkers seem to delve into, I think you might also like Jordan Hall, Daniel Schmachtenberger, Nora Bateson and a website/YT channel called Rebel Wisdom.

@Arcangelo  I think they mean the "monkey-mind" and that part of you that's run by more animalistic, immediate desires, etc.
