Scenario Techniques - Germany

Scenario Planning, Networked Thinking

”Networked Thinking” has proven itself to have great value as an efficient analysis method, able to accomodate complex, unstable market- and competitive developments. It examines the inter-dependencies of all relevant market factors and categorizes them according to importance, active influence and passive interference. This, produces a coherent, complete, understandable and communicable “business model” which can serve as a basis for strategy development, scenario development, early warning or business war gaming.

Scenario techniques play a central and fundamental role among the methods of competitive analysis.
