Follow this process:
- List all the key entities in your business/organisation world
- Write three main strategic events you intend to initiate
- Write up step-by-step what happens as these strategic events are initiated - don't forget to look for combinations i.e. if ... happens and ... happens then we're bound to end up with ...
- Now role-play the response of each and every one of your (key) entities to the outcomes of the strategic events you have initiated
- Identify outcomes you are not happy with
- Select interventions to resolve the outcomes you are unhappy with and repeat steps 3-5 for these undesirable outcomes
There are also other similar models that you can look at:

- NerveWire have attempted to re-brand the standard scenario planning process as future mapping.
- FutureMapping.co.uk sells performance coaching under the term future mapping.
- The World Economic Forum Young Global Leaders 2007 used Future Mapping as a catchy title for their report on global trends.
