ToP® Approaches to Environmental Scanning
Before planning for the future, groups need to understand their history and the current dilemmas they face, as well as anticipate shifts and trends in their larger environment.
Environmental Scanning provides a way to quickly understand customer, staff or community perceptions and needs, delve into relevant data, and get groups on the same page to launch their work, but one size doesn’t fit all!
In this one day course, participants will explore 10 dynamic and creative ways to conduct group assessments, and then engage in hands-on practice to select the right approach for various situations. You’ll go back to this extensive “recipe book” of techniques again and again!

Of The Course
As your team is preparing for what’s next, there’s a need to pause and reflect. It’s like standing at the edge of a river—before crossing, you want to understand the currents beneath the surface, where you’ve been, and what might lie ahead. Your group’s history, the current challenges, and the larger forces in your environment all come into play, lessening the fear of the unknown.
That’s where Environmental Scanning comes in. Think of it as a toolkit that helps you gauge customer, staff, or community perceptions, uncover critical data, and get everyone aligned. But like every good tool, you need the right one for the job.
In this one-day course, you’ll uncover 10 dynamic and creative ways to assess your group’s landscape. Through hands-on practice, you’ll explore which technique fits the situation at hand. You’ll come away with a “recipe book” of methods you’ll return to time and again when preparing to navigate any future planning
