Key note presentation, strategic discussion, scenario planning and advice

Key note presentation

This presentation is intended for a broader audience and aims to introduce the concepts of scenarioplanning through a step-by-step approach and compelling examples.

The 30 to 60 minute presentation is interactive as much as possible. After a short introduction, attendees will receive up-to-date information about the latest trends and developments that influence the organisation, such as social, geopolitical, technological, climate-related and macro-economic aspects. These insights emphasize the importance of dealing effectively with uncertainties.

It is then explained how scenarioplanning can serve as a valuable tool for dealing with this. A five-step approach to scenario planning is introduced, then examples focused on the short and long term are highlighted. Finally, the presentation concludes with a practical, step-by-step overview that participants can use as a reference.

Strategic conversation

This is an interactive conversation of approximately 1.5 hours with the management of an organisation. Based on several slides, the general concepts of planning can be discussed through a step-by-step approach and appealing examples.

The conversation is interactive and organisation specific as much as possible. This can provide an overview of relevant trends and developments that have an impact on the future of the organisation, such as social, geopolitical, technological, climate-related and macroeconomic aspects. These insights emphasize the importance of dealing effectively with uncertainties.

It can then indicate how scenario planning can serve as a valuable tool to deal with this. As needed, a five-step approach to scenario planning and specific strategic questions based on external developments can be discussed in more detail.

Scenario planning workshop

Scenario planning can help organisations to compete and thrive and practically prepare for an uncertain future. This workshop delves deeper into the scenario planning process, allowing participants to fully understand and apply the concepts using a concrete business case.

The workshop usually consists of a morning and an afternoon part. After an extensive introduction to the concept of scenario planning, the most important trends and developments that influence the revenue model of the organisation are identified. Based on this, the most plausible future scenarios are created, which are then assessed by the participants for their likelihood and potential impact on the organisation’s business model.

Based on the outcome of the scenario analysis, participants will determine key priorities and initiatives that could potentially be included in the organisation’s strategic plan.
