What is Scenario Planning?
Why is it important?
Scenario Planning is a process that will bring together members of your organization to identify wicked challenges in your business environment, and then weave together the most frequently identified concerns to develop plausible alternative futures. Those plausible futures, or scenarios, can help your company strategize to achieve short and long term success in new ways.
So you spent all of that time developing a new strategic plan, but are you completely certain that it will lead your team to victory in this ever-changing business environment? Just because a new boat is built, does not mean that it will survive, let alone thrive, when the weather changes.
Is your strategic plan, “weather proof”? Has your organization taken the time to focus on your business environment and the looming and complex challenges that will ultimately seek to disrupt and even destroy what you’ve built? That’s what scenario planning seeks to provide. Through the process of scenario planning, we will look at the external environment, the wicked challenges that are often being talked about in isolation or amongst individuals in your organization, and bring that expertise to bear in order to inform, equip, and “weather proof” your organization against the plausible futures that could surround and become your business’s reality.
