“Scenarios are not projections, predictions or forecasts, but are more like ‘What If?’ questions,” Nardia defining scenarios. They show what the future might hold based on trends or circumstances that can shape it.
Nardia and David discuss what scenario planning is, what the process is for businesses and how this approach differs from traditional strategies. The pair also ask how this can be applied to plastic waste.
For nearly fifteen years, Dr. Nardia Haigh has been working at the intersection of climate change and strategy. She has taught hundreds of executives and business students how to strategize for climate change resilience using scenario planning. Haigh's straight-forward, step-by-step method is now available in her book, ‘Scenario Planning for Climate Change.’
Nardia earned her Ph.D. in Business Management at the University of Queensland Business School in Brisbane, Australia. As a doctoral student, she investigated organizational strategies in response to climate change issues. She is a tenured Associate Professor of Management at the University of Massachusetts Boston.
