Why You Need to Stress Test Your Strategies (and Tactics)
While many teams and organizations engage in scenario planning,\xa0most\xa0don't go far enough. Arjan Singh,\xa0consultant and adjunct professor at Southern Methodist University,\xa0says a more disciplined approach, borrowed from the military, can help leaders truly test\xa0how\xa0their\xa0strategies, operations, and tactics\xa0hold up against competitors, shifting market dynamics, and unexpected events. He's helped hundreds of companies\xa0identify risks\xa0and find new ways to innovate by leading them through corporate war games, and he explains his process and results. Singh is the author of the book Competitive Success: Building Winning Strategies with Corporate War Games.
