Overwhelmed by the growth of our exponentially fast-changing world? In this workshop, we make sense of key uncertainties and potential future scenarios, so you can lead your business with confidence in an unpredictable world.
Using the Futures Wheel model, we generate multiple future scenarios beyond the typical budget planning. We decide which scenarios to plan for, optimise for, and disregard. Mapping these scenarios against your current strategy will reveal whether it is serving your future goals.
Joining this workshop as a stepping stone before you move into a strategy planning session will equip you with the necessary skills to make wise business decisions about the future.
What you'll get out of this workshop:
1. An introduction to future scenario planning and macro trends
2. How to identify key uncertainties and signals related to your company
3. How to generate a number of multiple future scenarios divided into likely, possible and preferred future scenarios
4. How to stress-test your existing strategy against the future scenarios
5. How to decide which future scenarios your company should plan and optimise for in the next strategy planning session
This workshop lasts 3-4 hours and can be booked upon request.
