Imagining a Post-COVID World - Strategic Futures
by Auxano Strategies, Behavioural Strategies, & GARI
SCENARIO #1: The Panic Normalized
National competitive strategies dominate the global response to the crisis
SCENARIO #2: Taming our worst impulses
Collaboration among industrialized nations mitigates impact of crisis on advanced economies through vaccine development and 'reshoring' of manufacturing, while developing world experiences protracted effects
SCENARIO #3: Too Little, Too Late
The US and European Commission are unable to lead a global response. The G20 launches a global response, but it is too little, too late. China moves to fill a void.
SCENARIO #4: No Return to Normal
The global response to the virus mitigate the worst effects, but fail to prevent chronic on-going waves of infection. The crisis causes deep cultural changes, while strengthening decentralizing trends in economic organization and activity.
SCENARIO #5: An Atomized World
The pandemic exacerbates economic, ideological, and technological divisions within and among societies.
SCENARIO #6: A Disaster Forgotten
Crisis fatigue causes leaders and citizens to let the pandemic fade into annual global statistics, ushering in a new more conservative era of deficit reduction and budget austerity.
