Do you want your team to get a taste for doing futures thinking in a structured process?

Risk-driven scenario planning uses structured processes and is informed by exploring consequences and also the associated opportunities of situations in future time horizons.
During the course you will develop a plausible future risk-driven scenario with your fellow course participants and assess the scenario planning maturity of your organisation.
This 3-hour virtual course is size-limited to maximise interactions with the teaching team.
