“We live in uncertain times. Swine flu rages. Nukes proliferate. Bailouts beget bailouts. Heaven forbid you should have to make a big decision amid such turbulence. Thinking about a career change? Moving to a new city? Paying for a child’s education? Having a hard time deciding what to do?

Schwartz typically does this for major corporations, but the technique works just as well for individuals. To be clear: Scenario planning is not prediction. The goal is to envision possible futures, which will serve as guideposts to the path forward. The payoff is a clearer view of what the future may hold and of the most advantageous route through it.”
