2026 Appeal
Toward a Thriving Future
2026 City Flourishing Report
Is Green Bay flourishing? Envision Greater Green Bay collaborated on the 2026 City Flourishing Report with Together Green Bay to examine that question both now and into the future. The Harvard Flourishing Study is a long-term research project examining what helps people live healthy, meaningful, and fulfilling lives. Rather than defining well-being simply by happiness or income, the study looks at six interconnected dimensions of human flourishing: happiness and life satisfaction, physical and mental health, meaning and purpose, close social relationships, character and virtue, and financial and material stability.
This is the third year that Together Green Bay has applied the six domains to the Greater Green Bay area to determine how our community is flourishing and in what areas we are challenged. This year, Together Green Bay invited Envision Greater Green Bay to include strategic foresight analysis into the process. Rather than being a snapshot of our community as it is today, Envision provided the foresight lens through which to view the six flourishing domains and our community 10-15 years into the future.

A Team Approach to Teaching an UWGB MBA Course
An instruction team consisting of Gratzia Villaroel, Randy Lawton, Dave Wegge, and Tony Pichler are currently teaching the Alternative Futures and Strategic Foresight course that is part of the UWGB MBA program curriculum. The eight students in the course are receiving a heavy dose of foresight topics influenced by the instructors' certificates in foresight from the University of Houston. Sessions are a combination of on-site learning at various local businesses, on campus, and asynchronous learning online. The old saying that if you really want to learn something then teach certainly applies here!
