This book is about ***anizational survival: the reas*** why ***anizati*** do not always survive, and what can be done about it.

Survival means creating value for stakeholders, and the survival problem starts with uncertainty, change and the need for ***anizati*** to adapt to shifting needs and market conditi***. The key question is 'Why are ***anizati*** slow to change and adapt?'

Unsuccessful ***anizati*** are distinguished by their failure to overcome thinking and behavioural flaws at personal, ***anizational and community levels. In this book, we explain what these flaws are and how the scenario approach helps senior managers and ***anizati*** to overcome them. Our approach is based on reasoning, research, real world observati*** - and a long track record developing scenario-based thinking, combining the most effective elements of the many scenario approaches that have been tried over time.

This book explains:

Why scenario thinking is increasingly important: how it has developed as an approach that can help build successful strategies and ***anizati***.

How scenarios are valuable in overcoming an obstacle or problem - current or potential - by enabling innovation and creative thinking 'outside the box'.

How scenario thinking can be used to resolve ***anizational flaws by enhancing the strategic conversation.

How to understand the scenario approach in the context of effective ***anizational learning and development.

How to ensure that scenario thinking is included in a wider strategic and ***anizational learning framework, essential for ***anizational survival.

Outlining the benefits and techniques of scenario thinking The Sixth Sense shows that scenario thinking is purposeful and effective in driving strategy and ***anizational development towards managerial and ***anizational success.

书籍介绍

This book is about ***anizational survival: the reas*** why ***anizati*** do not always survive, and what can be done about it. Survival means creating value for stakeholders, and the survival problem starts with uncertainty, change and the need for ***anizati*** to adapt to shifting needs and market conditi***. The key question is 'Why are ***anizati*** slow to change and adapt?' Unsuccessful ***anizati*** are distinguished by their failure to overcome thinking and behavioural flaws at personal, ***anizational and community levels. In this book, we explain what these flaws are and how the scenario approach helps senior managers and ***anizati*** to overcome them. Our approach is based on reasoning, research, real world observati*** - and a long track record developing scenario-based thinking, combining the most effective elements of the many scenario approaches that have been tried over time. "Organizational learning and scenario planning are seen by many business people as two separate disciplines, with different programmes and communities of practice. This book builds a bridge between the two. I believe this is important. It will invite the ***anizational learners to develop a deeper perspective on the longer-term business environment, and it will invite the scenario planners to c***ider thei***ork in the context of ***anizational survival and development. Both will be better off, to the benefit of their ***anizati***." —Arie de Geus, author of The Living Company "Helping ***anizati*** learn thei***ay into the future in a world of complexity, uncertainty and ambiguity is what The Sixth Sense is all about. The book is a deep, insightful and practical guide to the tools an ***anization needs to break through the limits of its own thinking. Scenario thinkers and planners working to make their ***anizati*** adaptive learners will find invaluable tools and examples to guide their own development." —Peter Schwartz, co-founder and chair of Global Business Network and author of The Art of the Long View .
