ERIC C. HASELTINE is a consultant, former associate director for
science and technology in the Office of the Director of National Intel -
ligence (essentially chief technology officer for the entire intelligence
community), former head of research and development (R&D) at Dis-
ney Imagineering, and former designer of virtual-reality technology for
flight simulation for Hughes Aircraft. An expert on managing inno -
vation processes with experience in the defense, entertainment, and
aircraft industries, Dr. Haseltine has helped many organizations with
sales and profits that have plateaued to “harvest the future” by develop -
ing far-sighted technological solutions that deliver near-
term value. Applying the principles he describes in his
book, Long Fuse, Big Bang: Achieing Long-Term Success
Through Daily Victories (Hyperion, 2010), he helps find
opportunities that are often staring organizations in the
face but are not recognized because of a natural ten-
dency to filter out unexpected or unwanted information.
Based on his experience as a Ph.D. neuroscientist and a senior execu-
tive in both industry and government, he not only shows them how to
find opportunities hiding in the brain’s “don’t-expect-don’t-want” blind
spots, but also how to capture these opportunities once they have been
identified. His consulting clients include Fortune 100 companies as
well as large federal agencies. Dr. Haseltine is president and managing
partner of Haseltine Partners LLC, is the owner of 15 patents in optics,
special effects, and electronic media and the author of more than 100
publications in science and technical journals, on the web, and in Dis-
coer magazine.
