shape the future


Explanation:
ich nehme an, dass es sich um ein Unternehmen handelt - deshalb würde ich hier nicht unbedingt "your" sagen - leider wieder einmal recht wenig Kontext. Vielleicht auch etwas in die Richtung "Be proactive" - war ja lange Zeit eines dieser beliebten Schlagworte. Könnte mir vorstellen, dass es auch hier passt.
