Horizon Scanning The output from horizon scanning is used
to the scenario generation, where plausible
future scenarios are created.
Horizon scanning is a deliberate or
purposeful strategic planning activity
where emerging changes and
developments are analysed to identify
events, trends and drivers (collectively,
‘factors’) that may shape an organisation’s
future operating environment and so its
policy, research and strategic agendas.

Agile Analysis The growing complexity of international
issues and the consequent requirement for
multidisciplinary input causes overloading

judgements.

technique which reduces analysis time and
provides precisely information.
