The coronavirus pandemic has affected different industries in different ways, and even within an industry, businesses have felt its impact differently. We’re not all in the same boat; we’re all in the same storm, but in different boats, navigating our way through the storm. The key skill you need to thrive is foresight – the ability to look ahead into an uncertain future. Instead of only planning for what you can see, use scenario planning to map out plausible future scenarios.
In this recent online presentation, in partnership with the Governance Institute of Australia, I shared ideas to help you:
- identify potential external pressures on your organisation
- assess your current readiness for future change and disruption
- focus on the strategies with the biggest ROI
- make important decisions even in an uncertain future
