In use at Royal/Dutch Shell since the late 1960s, scenario thinking is now widely accepted as a valuable method for informing decisions. This book focuses on the use of scenarios in business, as part of a strategic management toolkit. Drawing on a wealth of global examples, Scenarios in Business will provide managers at all levels with the knowledge, best practice guidelines and a practical set of tools to bring scenarios into their own organization
It is worth remembering that everything possible today was at one time impossible. It therefore follows that everything impossible today may at sometime in the future be possible. But, most importantly, in the end the future is not something that happens to us. The future is the sum of what we all do. This book is for anyone who realizes that the future will no longer replicate the past, but is still struggling to come to terms with, and cope with, the uncertainties of the future.
