On what basis do I do scenario planning when there is so much uncertainty? What all can change in consumer, economic, category trends and how do I prepare for them? How do I have confidence in a “realistic” scenario to form my plans when there is so much that change? How do I build an early warning system that tells me that my assumptions of the future are not holding?
What are the likely responses of my competitors to my moves? What have they done in the past? What are the constraints that they operate under? What is their culture & posture that will inform their response? What advantages do I have that I can deploy against them?
Out of all the data and trends I have, how do I isolate pivotal insights? How do I recognise and choose which insight to build my strategy on? Have I looked wide enough to go beyond consumer insights - have I searched for business, category or competitive insights?
How do I choose which competencies will be critical for the marketing team? How can I measurably build their competencies? Specifically, how do I build digital capabilities? Which are the best agency partners for my requirements? What is the best team structure? What are the core templates and processes my marketing team should follow?
