    Please state the answer Kaplan (or whoever) suggests.

    1 and 2 are almost the same. Stable environments and things going to plan are unlikely to encourage scenario planning – which is really looking at feasible possible futures. That’s not to say thar stable businesses shouldn’t scenario plan, but stability is unlikely to encourage that effort.

    3 Yes, scenario planning forces an element of preplanning. Foreseen is forearmed.

    4 Yes. It is important not to fall into group think. Scenario planning would help to break out of that.

    5 Yes. If competitors find it useful, so might you.
