Strategic Planning for an Uncertain Future

Programme Overview

While predicting the future is impossible, many public and corporate organisations utilise horizon scanning to detect emerging signals of change and trends. This proactive approach allows them to prepare appropriate responses should these changes materialise, ensuring they are ready to seize opportunities and mitigate potential threats.

For top management, providing clear direction and leadership is crucial. Therefore, it is essential for managers to understand the concept of horizon scanning and to interpret its findings and insights effectively. This knowledge will empower decision-makers to make informed choices and keep the organisation well-prepared for an uncertain future.
