Learning and the Future

  • Zero Loop – overwhelmed,

Pretending

  • Single Loop – take aways -

Doing

  • Double Loop – outside of

paradigm learning, entering the unknown – Knowings

  • Narrative learning, finding

and creating your story - Being

THE PROBLEM

  • Rapidly changing world, with

heterogeneous perspectives and rates of change

  • Multiple perspectives, with success
  • ften dependent on stakeholder

inclusion (but we don’t like the

  • ther stakeholders)
  • Perception of loss of agency, how

to recover capacity to influence

slide-22

Transformative Futures Thinking = Regain influence and capacity by exploring alternative futures and envisioning desired
