POLYCRISIS ASSESSMENT TOOLKIT
Mika Aaltonen
This toolkit is designed as a manual, not a manifesto. You can use it:
-
In leadership teams or boards.
-
In cross-agency workshops.
-
As a structured way to stop people shouting “polycrisis!” at every bad week.
It is built around the FONIC lens:
Fragile – Overlapping – Nonlinear – Interconnected – Cascading
FONIC is the structure you use to sort real polycrises from loud but limited disruptions, and to decide how seriously to engage.
You don’t need software. You need a pen, a table, and colleagues who can tolerateuncomfortable questions.
