Enfilade.
A business wargame to future-proof your strategy.
The cardinal mistake in any competitive endeavour is mirror-imaging, a wishful thinking that your rival will pursue the same goals, strategy and tactics as you do.
Enfilade© — from enfilading fire, a view from a flanking position — future-proofs your innovation strategy against competitive reactions by placing your business teams to the outside or to the flank of their current roles to act as a competitor. It prepares you not for what a rival will do, but for everything they could do.
Using rigorous analysis of competitive governance, doctrines and thinking, Enfilade© avoids mirror imaging bias and role-plays competitive strategies so that your teams can anticipate competitive actions better.
