One needs to keep an eye out for movements in their market landscape and make course corrections. Continuous monitoring for trigger events is fundamental to keeping the scenario planning effort active, and therefore, effective. It was a pleasure to discuss this topic along with some of the most experienced industry practitioners.” said Mohit Bhakuni, Founder & CEO of Contify.
