Does the flap of a butterfly’s wings in Brazil set off a tornado in Texas?’ Hilborn, R. C. (1994) Chaos and Nonlinear Dynamics We will never be able to escape from the ultimate dilemma that all our knowledge is about the past, and all our decisions are about the future. Ian Wilson (2000) From Scenario Thinking to Strategic Action, Technological Forecasting and Social Change

Firms should engage continually in four activities: scanning; for warning signs, macro changes and trends that will affect the firm monitoring; for specific trends and patterns forecasting; developing projections of anticipated outcomes of those trends assessing; determining timing and effects of macro changes on the firm Ginter and Duncan (1990)

 1. Why did the French lose at Crecy? 2. Why did the French lose at Agincourt? 3. What can we conclude about how the French approach to battle changed over this time period? 4. What can we learn about differing views shown in this case on what is strategy?

 1. When might scenarios be of use to managers? 2. Why were the Creative and Media students more adept at generating scenarios than other managers? 3. Why should the disposability of the firm affect one’s views of scenarios? 4. Are scenarios a way of ‘remembering the future’?
