Scenarios
What will happen with the coronavirus? We can’t be sure. It’s extremely complex and the situation changes day-by-day. That’s perfect territory for scenarios. I was reminded of this by scenario strategist and co-author of my first book, Clem Sunter. He sent me his latest scenarios for the epidemic: Much Ado About Nothing (everyone is overreacting); The Camel’s Straw (triggers a global recession); and Spain Again (a repeat of the Spanish flu pandemic of 1918 that killed more than 50 million people). Scenarios, unlike forecasts, allow us to imagine, simulate and prepare for different outcomes, adjusting as the future unfolds.
