"In our scenario and visioning work, we need to clarify whether our focus is to find one image of or pathway to the future or to create forums for generating many of them. In my understanding, the processes involved in generating one overarching vision and many diverse visions are different (although similar and in no way mutually exclusive). We may work on one image, just to show that a good future is truly possible. Or we may create multiple visions to open a space of possibility that may have juice for diverse people, projects or perspectives. Or we may generate a very generalized vision which inspires diverse people to create their own specific version of that. And so on. Here are various approaches to visioning and scenario work."

"People start businesses for lots of reasons, but as the business evolves so, too, may your goals. Are you simply trying to create an incredible product, or are you hoping to effect a larger societal change? As we learn more about our customers' and clients' needs, we often start to reconsider our original objectives. If you're finding yourself in this position, it may be time to revisit your original mission statement. Having a solid (and up-to-date) vision of what you want to accomplish will keep your decision-making on course, and, ultimately, help you get your company to where you want it to be. "
