The author of the famous 2008 HBR article, 'Strategy as a Wicked Problem', claims that disruptive business models and issues that are wicked have de-linked the future from the past, making conventional strategic planning systems scarce.
He presents a tool that organizational strategists may use to face 'multiple potential futures' and 'disorderly ambiguity': feed-forward systems. By adopting this approach, he says, leaders can fashion a future that is indifferent to the past, driven by 'robust activities' and 'enablers' that can transform an organization and its particular context.
