Scenario planning is a crucial tool for managing climate risk, but can be compromised by low-quality processes and inconsistencies in methods and data.

Scenario planning is a dynamic, integrative approach for strengthening strategic decision-making, facilitating organizational learning, and enhancing management amidst uncertainty - without trying to predict the future.

Senior leadership can hold biases and assumptions that make it harder for their teams to engage in effective scenario planning. Navigating resistance from leadership can ensure that teams can still influence strategy over time.
