Shifting Path for Growth in The Age of Turbulence
John helps business leaders address one of their most perplexing questions confronting them today: How do I get my organization to understand that to be successful we must look beyond the U.S. (and Europe) and be committed to building our foreign business, especially in emerging high growth markets, to sustain our company's mid- and long-term growth? The great American shift is now underway. Is your company ready for it?
Audience Take Away: A clearer understanding of the new normality and its' global impact on our businesses worldwide. A detailed roadmap to growth in "THE DECADE AHEAD" and it is -- outside the U.S.!
Scenario Thinking / Scenario Planning
Vigilant leaders spot opportunities and threats before their rivals. They sense and react to weak signals earlier and spot new chances of market success before others. They look for signals that don't fit existing norms or patterns within their industry. Caslione's Keynote: "Scenario Thinking / Scenario Planning" provides a disciplined process to guide this focus on the future and offers a tool to manage key uncertainties.
Audience Take Away: An opportunity to hear how scenario thinking and planning now rests at the core of the strategic planning process as a proven approach for preparing organizations to face unknown futures.
Managing and Marketing in The Age of Turbulence
All strategies wear out and do so even faster during times of turbulence. Caslione's CHAOTICS is a disciplined approach for detecting sources of turbulence, predicting consequent vulnerabilities and opportunities, and developing critical, pragmatic and timely responses. CHAOTICS represents a new system, a new set of strategic behaviors and guidelines designed to help business leaders and their companies navigate turbulence and uncertainty. The good news: there are opportunities, and leaders who truly lead are capitalizing at this (shifting of growth) moment in time.

There is a shift happening, and you do not want to miss this important global perspective when planning your next executive strategic planning session.
