8 ways business managers can use fiction to prepare for the uncertain

Reading fiction has always been, for many, a source of pleasure and a means to be transported to other worlds. But that’s not all. Businesses can use novels to consider possible future scenarios, study sensitive workplace issues, develop future plans and avoid unplanned problematic events — all without requiring a substantial budget. During the COVID-19 pandemic, many business leaders have learned how important it is for businesses to consider a wide range of possible outcomes and to enhance organizational adaptability. Relying on analyzing or projecting trends and extending what business leaders usually do is no longer enough to assure future success. When management is poorly prepared for the unexpected, businesses start getting into trouble. Scenario planning, therefore, helps businesses keep themselves flexible and move quickly with market shifts. Scenario planning is a series of potential stories or possible alternate futures in which today’s decisions may play out. Such planning can help managers assess how they or their employees should respond in different potential situations. How businesses can use novels Unfortunately, scenario planning requires time and resources. And depending on its use, such as for an investigation, budgeting or legal matters, it can also require collecting sensitive data. That can include employees’ personal experiences of sexual, discriminatory or psychological harassment, suicide, mental health, drug abuse, etc.

Kisah di Bilik Pesantren

Dalam hidupku sama sekali tidak tahu apa itu pesantren. Dan memang tidak tahu apa dan bagaimana keadaan dalam pesantren. Namun, Bapak memilih tempat pesantren ini--yang mungkin--untuk mengubah kehidupanku yang sama sekali tidak pernah tahu arti dalan peraturan hidup. Sialnya, dalam pesantren itu bukannya disambut dengan ramah, malah disapa dengan ribuan cacian yang tak aku suka dalam hidup. Sialan! Lelaki bernama Herman ini lagi. Sok-sok-an ceramah! Aku enggak butuh. Yang aku butuh, hanya satu. Pulang! Hari demi hari telah kulewati selama ada di pesantren, dan ternyata, lama kelamaan aku juga betah dan menemukan arti dalam kehidupan. Pak .... Terima kasih.

I Want You Back: A Tale of Twisted Fate

Separated by fate, haunted by the past-- that's how they live. Until they meet again, they build hatred, show agony, betray friends, want to be loved, and learn how to sacrifice their happiness. Remember those nights that I've been disturbing you? It's because I can't say what I need to say. Remember the time that I didn't disturb you? I've been holding so much, hoping that you'd be the one to call me first- and you did. Every time I hurt your feelings, I'm hurting too. I- I just don't know how to tell you the exact words, so I keep on annoying you. I'm sorry for all the trouble that I have caused- "I know," I said, and I hugged him. I can sense the same pain as what he is in my dream. Confessing is not bad. I'm just overwhelmed because I feel the same. "I like you too, Alex. I don't know how, and I don't know why, but that's how I felt. I hate you harassing and annoying me, but I miss it when you don't!" I smiled. Their fate is twisted.

Archie's Escape

"I had no choice but to call your father" Gavin says to his best-friend's retreating back "Archie will you stop for a minute and hear my side. Your silent treatment and scowl is enough for me to know you're pissed" "I am not pissed Gavin. I am ecstatic so much so that I am a raging bowl of anger exactly what I want to be whenever I am going to see my wife" sarcasm coats each word as a dark humourless laughter escapes him Gavin nods his head acknowledging that his friend is indeed upset before saying "I will never regret calling the King because he got the job done. You are now a free man thanks to him" "I was a free man before him! Haven't you been listening to me in the past years we've been here. For the first time in my life, I am not being seen as a mollycoddled trophy on its way to the slaughter house. I have a family of my own now with Philomena and she loves me for who I am. I am a free man with her by my side" "Free men do not lie about their childhood and hide a freaking kingdom from the people they love. You are not a free man Prince Archibald Saint William, you've never been"
