Hooray for graduate students and their willingness to turn their talents on fledgling businesses like Cohere. My former classmates from the Organizational Performance and Change program at Colorado State University have been leading Cohere and a small group of its members through scenario planning.

What is scenario planning? At its simplest: a way to envision multiple possible futures for your company. At its best: a way to get your mind blown over and over again. Seriously? Yes, scenario planning helps you recognize subtle shifts in your business so that you can imagine where you and your business will wind up if you stay on that course.

There will be more to come on this topic as we learn more about the four possible futures for Cohere this week!
