Scenario Planning:
What would happen if your business is unable to bring in Sales for the next 6 months?

Nilikuwa nafanya job Mlolongo na manufacturing yetu ilikuwa inadepend na availability ya chuma za steel, ambazo zilikuwa imported. So, zikikosa, we were out of biz...

So, how do you plan around it?
Creating mitigation measures brings clarity in the face of uncertainty.
Even in your absence, your employees can still follow through the mitigation procedures like an instruction manual & still get the job done.
Put systems/structures in place. E.g. in case China-imported chuma ikosekane, we can improvise na imported alloys za Zambia.
