Last week I ran a one-day workshop (view program blurb – item C9 – here) “How to Build and Use Scenarios” in the pre-conference courses at the WFS annual meeting in DC. We had 38 attendees and by all accounts much was learned (including by me of course).
This was a fairly typical example of the Intro Workshop in Scenarios program that I run, so I’ve decided to post it on SlideShare, see link below. Let me know what you think.
What is different about this course at this venue, particularly, is that the attendees come from a wide spectrum of industries and sectors (from Nestle strategist to the Canadian military planners, to Mauri sustainability experts, and beyond), and have a very wide background/preparation in futures tools and methods. There were relative experts in the room, and some absolute novices. … nothing like a challenge for the facilitator!
