Scenario Planning to Navigate Volatility

The pace of change is accelerating, and many foundations and nonprofits are being asked to make long-term decisions in a moment of heightened uncertainty. Political instability, policy shifts, and changing federal and local dynamics are creating real questions about how organizations should respond and where to focus.

What is unfolding in Minnesota today could become a local reality elsewhere tomorrow. Preparing only after disruption occurs reduces strategic options and increases risk.

This initiative offers a structured scenario planning process designed for foundations and nonprofits that want to think clearly in uncertain conditions. Rather than attempting to predict what will happen next, the process helps organizations explore multiple plausible futures, understand the implications for their mission and operations, and make strategic choices that hold up across a range of possible outcomes.

Foundations may use this process internally to clarify their own posture and response, or extend it to grantees and partners as a way to strengthen collective readiness and alignment. In both cases, the focus is on moving beyond reactive decision-making toward more deliberate, forward-looking action.

This is a focused, limited offering for organizations that want to prepare before volatility escalates. It is about strengthening shared understanding, strategic clarity, and decision-making capacity in a time of rapid change.
