Scenario Planning

Today's organisations and businesses look out at a world marked by high uncertainty, rapid change, and complexity. Strategic decisions have to made based on information from a variety of often contested perspectives. How do decision-makers begin to grapple with this range of potential challenges and opportunities?

Traditional strategic planning processes work well in relatively stable business environments, but they rely on forecasting from past trends. However "a trend is a trend until it bends", and it is the "bends" that are generally of most interest because they carry the most risk, or offer the greatest opportunities.

Scenario planning is a strategic tool for improving decision-making against a background of possible future environments. Scenarios are plausible, alternative views of the future - the art of story-telling applied to the future, instead of the past or the present.
