Market Research with Strategic Impact: Effectively Utilizing Scenario Techniques

Scenario techniques do not make decisions for you. But they make you more capable of making decisions. They help to structure assumptions and influencing factors, thoroughly consider alternatives, and be prepared when reality and forecasts diverge.

Corporate market research anchors scenario work within the company: through reliable data, methodological clarity, and experience in dealing with uncertainty. This results in scenarios that do not remain speculative but rather support strategic discussions with a solid foundation.

In this session, you will experience which qualitative and quantitative methods have proven effective in practice and how artificial intelligence becomes a valuable sparring partner in the scenario process.

Here's what awaits you:

  • Why scenario techniques strengthen strategic management
  • Which qualitative and quantitative approaches have proven effective
  • How AI concretely supports scenario work
  • The role of corporate market research

If Personas Could Talk – KIRA in Workshop Practice

In workshops, teams are expected to arrive at robust decisions within a short timeframe. Ideas are formulated, alternatives compared, and assumptions challenged. What is often missing is live feedback from the target audience, or it is replaced by gut instinct. This is where KIRA comes in.

We demonstrate how dialog enabled personas can be integrated directly into workshops using KIRA. They serve as a source of rapid inspiration, a tool for systematically challenging ideas, and a way to conduct quick pulse checks on different options, all within short, clearly structured iterations.

How KIRA brings the voice of the target audience into the workshop

Teams pose specific questions such as “What triggers you?”, “What holds you back?”, or “Which option convinces you, and why?” KIRA responds with evidence based insights in the distinct tone of the respective persona, complete with visible source references and versioning. Assumptions become testable, counterarguments transparent, and decisions more robust, without requiring the physical presence of the target group.

Experience how KIRA gives personas a voice, increasing speed, focus, and quality in both ideation and decision making.

From Segmentation to Activation: How the P+M SEGMENTATION|SUITE Connects Robust Segments, Experiential Personas and Direct Implementation

In practice, segmentation rarely fails due to statistical issues – rather, it's the challenge of selecting the right solution from several plausible options, making it understandable internally, and bringing it to life that proves difficult.

In this workshop, we demonstrate how the P+M SEGMENTATION|SUITE bridges exactly this gap: featuring a multi-solution approach for robust segmentation, SEG|MATRIX for transparent collaborative decision-making with clients, SEG|MATCH for practical tagging/screening, and KIRA for interactive personas and easily digestible results communication.

The outcome: less black box, increased acceptance, faster activation – taking you from segmentation to actionable personas.
