Futureproofing your organization: Scenario planning with a critical inclusion lens

Business leaders are facing critical decision points and working to build organizational resilience and sustainability in the face of increasingly complex global political, economic, social, technological, and environmental (PESTLE) dynamics. From wide-ranging directives and regulations across Canada, the EU, the US, the UK, and beyond to an aging population and AI proliferation, organizations must consider current and future consequences for their business operations as they set their paths forward. During times of uncertainty like this, scenario planning is an essential tool for organizations preparing for shifting paradigms and potential business changes.

In this tool we provide a tactical framework for implementing scenario planning with an inclusion lens. Although various external forces will always be at play, what remains central is the imperative for attracting and retaining the best talent; fostering innovative, productive, and respectful work climates; and providing a best-in-class experience across the employee life cycle.

With a sustained focus on debiasing systems and fostering a workplace where all people are valued and respected, organizations may be able to increase profitability, decrease attrition, and minimize reputational and financial costs.

Leverage the interactive PDF and example scenario to forecast and anticipate changes ahead and ensure your company can reap the rewards of an inclusive work culture through the challenges of today and tomorrow.
