These days, the ever shifting business landscape needs to accommodate all the kinds of factors that are very fluid – social, technological, political, ecological and regulatory. Business strategy can no longer be the “5 year plan” – it needs to encapsulate a vision of a way forward that is capable of being modified at every twist and turn of events while allowing progress towards established and agreed goals.

Strategy development must embrace "what if?" investigations that explore beyond the habitual mindset. It must consider multiple futures – in other words, scenarios.

In this way, strategy ceases to be a fixed plan but rather a learning process that leads to continuous improvement in the alignment of the organisation to its environment. Scenarios are a powerful way of developing a learning organisation.
