Strategic reframing: Scenario planning in disruptive times with Rafael Ramirez

Co-hosted by Department of Management, Politics and Philosophy, CBS and the Danish Design Centre

Location: Copenhagen Business School (CBS), Solbjerg Plads 3, room s.03 (Novo Nordisk aud.)

Description
Traditional strategy assumes stability and predictability. Today's world is better characterized by turbulence, uncertainty, novelty and ambiguity - conditions that contribute disruptive changes and trigger the search for new ways of coping. This seminar will explore how business leaders and policy makers can use scenario planning to support strategy and public policy, and how scenario methods and design approaches can enrich each other.

One of the world’s foremost experts on scenario planning, Rafael Ramirez is Fellow in Strategy and Director of Oxford University’s strategic scenarios programme. Ramirez has published numerous books on scenarios and foresight and is co-author of a new book, Strategic reframing: The Oxford Scenario Planning Approach. Following a presentation by Ramirez, Christian Bason, CEO of the Danish Design Centre will reflect on how the disciplines of scenarios and design might enrich each other. The seminar is moderated by CBS professor Flemming Poulfelt.
