Scenario Based Decision Making
Uncertainty is ever present and its management sometimes becomes routine. At other times, uncertainty creates a real crisis that requires immediate attention, be it an unprecedented market volatility, industrial disruptors or COVID-19. Threats can be existential and circumstances are unprecedented.
The scale and impact of risks and challenges make them different to routine encounters. The ‘old’ challenges are still present – new laws and regulations, new expectations from different stakeholders, new demands for services, a changing funding landscape, cost escalation and much more, but in times of crisis there are even greater existential threats and an effective scenario planning is the ticket out.
