He enrolled at the University of Houston-Clear Lake in Studies of the Future, where he hoped to learn long term perspective and thinking. After earning his Masters degree, Wheelwright felt that the concepts and methods he had learned were extremely valuable, but that they were designed for large businesses and organizations. Convinced that futures methods were not only effective, he believed they were also scalable-that these methods would be just as valuable to individuals and small businesses as they had been for decades to large organizations around the world. To prove that scalability, he enrolled in PhD research at Leeds Metropolitan University. Now Dr. Wheelwright, his dissertation Personal Futures: Foresight and Futures Studies for Individuals clearly demonstrated the scalability of the concepts and methods practiced by professional futurists worldwide. Workshops and lectures further demonstrated the practical value and usability of personal futures methods to individuals. Wheelwright's Personal Futures Workbook has been adopted as a text in colleges and universities and thousands of copies have been distributed in several languages. The Workbook is now offered as a free download at www.personalfutures.net, and has been recently updated to be used with It's Your Future ... Make it a good one! Wheelwright is an active member of the Association of Professional Futurists, the World Future Society, and the World Futures Studies Federation. He chaired the APF committee that recognizes student work in Foresight and Futures Studies at universities worldwide and is a regular speaker at World Future Society conferences. Wheelwright has contributed a number of articles to international journals and other publications. After taking a year off to write this book, he plans to resume speaking and lecturing about the values that futures methods offer individuals and small businesses.
