We live in Brittle, Anxious, Non-Linear, Incomprehensible (BANI) times and the old school approach of dusting off and updating last year’s strategic plan of the world isn’t going to cut it.

In this session we walk through the steps necessary to facilitate the development of a strategy that builds readiness for the predicted and a flexibility to respond to unexpected change. Embracing Nicholas Nassim Taleb’s work on Anti-Fragility, and General Stanley McCrystal’s Team of Teams, we work through tools that can decrease dependence on forecasting the future and focus on agreeing decision-making structures that allow a strategy to be built with the flexibility to rapidly respond to changing external and internal circumstances.
