Scenario planning has long been a critical tool for leaders in organizations of all sizes. Changes in market conditions, variation in regulatory and political risk, failures of internal systems — all these can threaten a business or NGO's ability to achieve critical goals.

ICONS simulations help plan for difficult future scenarios — exploring both known challenges, and the unforeseen ones which arise in the course of the exercise. ICONS' simulation developers have designed scenarios to support a variety of highly specialized planning and operations dilemmas for organizations of all types and sizes, from small non-profits to global Fortune 500 corporations and the World Bank.

A unique, customized approach

An ICONS simulation is completely unique and tailored exactly to the needs of the client. For any given scenario of concern, ICONS carries out an extensive review of the global environmental issues, industry best practices, and existing client plans. Our aim is to understand how your organizational culture works and responds to challenges so that the exercise directly addresses the most relevant and unique questions you need answered. The ICONS team consults with top issue area experts during the preparation of any exercise, and the use of tools like ICONSnet, our online simulation platform, allows for easy and sophisticated examination of the outcomes of any simulation.
