Possibilities

As the context leader collects questions against scenarios, various strategic choices begin to emerge, called possibilities. Possibilities capture specific positions or choices that the context leader could make, to address the circumstances and uncertainty of a given scenario. Possibilities support dialog that asks, "What would it take for this to be true?" as the different possibilities are compared, to yield a "best possibility" that emerges as the ideal future, or vision.

Example Syntax:

"For <this scenario>, if we make <these strategic choices> then if <these things> were true, then <these parent goals> could be met."
