Presentation of the program

Volatile, uncertain, complex and ambiguous: the current context, aggravated by the COVID crisis, calls for the integration of new methods and tools into project management, in order to manage ever greater and more rapid fluctuations in constraints and resources.

Strategic design, combining foresight and rapid experimentation cycles, enables us to develop a new approach to managing uncertainty in project and organizational management. It consists in identifying the main factors of uncertainty linked to the future, imagining several possible futures, assessing their respective risks and opportunities, and then creating a portfolio of actionable options for each of them.

The aim of this short program is to enable managers and executives to apply the tools of strategic design to increase the resilience of their projects and organizations.

Target audience
