Scenario Planning LO10486

I've become very interested in Scenario Planning, as opposed to Strategic
Planning. I'm currently reading "The Art of the Long View," by Peter
Schwartz.

I became reacquainted with the subject when I read about the work Pierre
Wack and Ted Newland did at Shell Oil, described in Art Kliener's book
"The Age of Heretics."

Right now, Novell is at a pivotal moment in it's history. I believe that
scenario planning can help ensure we make the best possible decisions. Is
anyone else interested in this subject? Does anyone know of additional
resources (either on the Web, or in books and magazines) that I might
reference?

With gratitude,
