Planning for Extraordinary Times
Was a massive terrorist strike on Western soil imaginable before 9/11?
Yes, if you read the letter to the US president contained in The Mind of a Fox, the No. 1 bestseller published in June 2001. The book has since trans-formed scenario planning from an esoteric discipline into a practical model widely used in the business world. Now the authors, Chantell Ilbury and Clem Sunter, have extended their model to allow companies to have an intense strategic conversation based on the idea that business is a game which you have to understand before examining different strategies to play it.
In Games Foxes Play-Planning for Extraordinary Times, the authors chal-lenge the American orthodoxy that only leaders with a fixed, central vision (hedgehogs) can achieve greatness. They argue that leaders with a bal-anced set of beliefs and the capability of adapting to change (foxes) are more likely to win the game in the extraordinary times we live in.
