In a world where uncertainty is the only constant, how can organizations make confident, strategic decisions? This interactive workshop introduces participants to the power of scenario thinking—a mindset and method for navigating ambiguity with clarity and purpose. Using an example case study of Pathways Forward, a nonprofit facing volatile funding and surging demand, participants will explore how to identify critical uncertainties, imagine divergent futures, and prepare for multiple possibilities. Through small-group exercises, participants will dive into five potential scenarios—from leadership transitions to policy shifts, funding loss and community crises—and assess their implications, risks, and opportunities. This session will equip you with practical tools to: Reframe uncertainty as a strategic asset; Apply scenario planning frameworks to your own context; Align your team around shared priorities and next steps; Leave with tools and approaches you can use to engage your own team in scenario thinking. Join us to build your organization’s resilience and strategic clarity—no matter what the future holds.
