DESCRIPTION:Topic: Scenario Plans in Uncertain Times\r\nSpeaker: Dr. David Weiss, President and CEO of Weiss International Ltd.\r\nPresentation:\r\nIn time of uncertainty, organizations need to be ready for all possible scenarios to reduce risk and respond quickly if the situation does not unfold as forecasted. Too often organizations give lip service to less likely scenarios and only prepare for the probable scenario. In times of uncertainty, no one has a clear idea of the forecasted scenario. Many ask: How do we identify scenarios for consideration? To what extent should we develop plans for less probable scenarios? How do we know when to switch our focus to less likely scenarios? How can we measure the value of scenario planning? How can finance professional contribute to this process? Where do we start?\r\nThis presentation, based on the books by Dr. David Weiss and his subsequent work, provides the tools and techniques to develop scenario plans during uncertain times. \r\nThis insightful and entertaining interactive session focuses on the following:  \r\n- Why is it so important to develop scenario plans during uncertain times?\r\n- What are the tools and techniques to develop scenario plans? \r\n- How does preparing for multiple scenarios de-risk your organization in uncertain times?\r\n- How do these approaches apply to finance professionals?\r\nAbout the Presenter:\r\nDr. David S.
