1 rich Libsyn https://www.libsyn.com 90 600 G'day this is Ken Simpson - and it is a great pleasure to finally welcome you to episode 22 of the show! Here are the key links for this show; World Economic Forum Global Risks Report 2016 My blog posts on previous WEF Reports Blogs on Horizon Scanning WEF 2013 Report Whitehaven Coal - Hoax Media release War of the Worlds - Orson Welles 1938 radio production, full show BCI Horizon Scan DRII 2016 Predictions Resilience Ninja Newsletter - promoting Collaboration, Curation and Coaching BCI Position Statement on Organisational Resilience Continuity Central commentary on the statement &amp;nbsp; Have you ever found yourself in a situation where you started work on a plan or report, then something changed in the the environment - so you re scoped your work to include&amp;nbsp;those new factors. That work takes a little longer to finish, and guess what - something else changes while you are completing the assignment!
