Scenario Thinking

The authors of The Sixth Sense have developed a range of executive development programmes aimed at both introducing the concept and importance of strategic thinking of managers and further developing practitioners. These programmes explain how scenario thinking:

  • is increasingly important: how it has developed as an approach that can help build successful strategies and organisations.
  • is valuable in resolving a strategic issue or problem - current or potential - by enabling innovation and creative thinking "outside the box".
  • can be used to resolve organisational flaws by enhancing the strategic conversation.
  • underpins effective organisational learning and development.
  • is a key component of a wider strategic and organisational learning framework, essential for organisational survival.
