About Us
Wild Card Strategy is a strategic management consultancy based in Kingsport specializing in strategic planning, business Wild Card forecasting and management, Next Practices design, business risk management, and marketing strategy. Our name is taken from our core specialty . . . the forecasting and management of plausible Wild Card threats and opportunities that are likely to impact the future of your business, your industry and your customers.
Wild Cards are disruptive events, technologies, regulations, and societal shifts that occur in a split second and - either positively or negatively - forever alter the life and direction of your business. You're unprepared for them because you're unaware of them, or because they don't yet exist, or because you can't imagine they will ever exist. Being unprepared dooms your business to a future of missed opportunities and of threats and challenges that you'll wish you could have missed. But by being prepared in advance - by having a "Wild Card Strategy" - you'll create and leverage growth opportunities you otherwise would never have known were possible, AND you'll mitigate or eliminate challenges that would have significantly damaged your business had you not seen them coming.
Having "a Wild Card Strategy" is the difference between "surviving" and "thriving" in a disruptive future where Uncertainty always rules. We work with you to develop a Wild Card Strategy that prepares you to Thrive whenever (and wherever) your business collides with Uncertainty.Images
