2. How can Pathfinding Your Business™ help?
There are two broad approaches to the future:
You can either play the hand that you are dealt OR
You can decide where you want to go and work towards getting there
Pathfinding Your Business™ is the process of developing a set of scenarios for the future of your business, selecting the most appropriate one and developing a roadmap to get there.
If you don’t know where you are going

Emphasize the need to be proactive, not reactive.
You can shape future even if you can’t guarantee it.
