👉 The Planners Project, initiated by the U.S. Department of Defense in the 1980s, aimed to develop a new generation of strategic planning tools and methodologies to enhance decision-making in complex, uncertain environments. It focused on creating more flexible, scenario-based planning approaches that could better account for a wide range of potential future outcomes. By integrating advanced analytics, simulation technologies, and collaborative processes, the project sought to improve the ability of military and civilian leaders to anticipate and respond to global challenges, ultimately fostering more resilient and adaptive strategies.
