How to Strategize in an Out-of-Control World

Invest in Preparedness: Foresight as the Key to Stability
In today's world, shaped by unpredictable forces such as geopolitical tensions, climate crises, and the rapid evolution of artificial intelligence, businesses face unprecedented challenges. 

As highlighted in the MIT Sloan Management Review article, "variance in company profitability can increasingly be attributed to factors that lie beyond the company and its industry." This underscores the pressing need for organizations to adopt strategies that prioritize and “invest in preparedness” and resilience in the face of external disruptions.

 Preparedness begins with foresight. By leveraging tools such as scenario mapping and early warning systems, companies can anticipate risks and seize opportunities. This proactive approach enables swift adaptation to ever-changing circumstances. The Institute for Competitive Intelligence (ICI) provides a pathway to mastering these vital skills.
