Abstract

Since the early 1990s, Generon Consulting has been developing the use of scenario thinking as a tool for effecting societal change. In its civic scenario projects, a group of influential leaders, drawn from a broad range of sectors and organizations, works together to understand what is happening, might happen, and should happen in their city, region, or country. They then act in concert on that shared understanding and vision. This article summarizes its experience with this work to date, the process developed, and the kinds of results produced. Examples are drawn from pioneering projects in two countries that made among the most remarkable democratic transitions of the 1990s: South Africa and Guatemala.
