Scenario Planning is a strategic-planning approach often used by forward-looking organizations to assess the shifting uncertainties in their changing planning environments. These uncertainties and their possible future outcomes could promote or inhibit the future ability of organizations to provide services that meet stakeholder expectations... The Scenario Planning approach I most often employ is a multi-step process designed to define the range of future uncertainty by generating multiple possible scenario futures. Each scenario credibly describes a longer-term future-planning environment that reflects a unique combination of uncertain outcomes and conditions. These scenario futures are evaluated both individually and collectively to develop flexible, strategic action plans that are applied in the near and mid terms.
