Overview: From the executive summary: ‘During periods of dramatic change, associations and other organizations are poorly served by traditional, incremental approaches to thinking about the future. Traditional approaches assume that future will be some sort of extrapolation of the present, albeit at an accelerating rate of change. Traditional approaches also presume that even if external conditions change rapidly, the capacity of association to respond is severely limited by culture, competencies, and cash. The limitations are good in the short run. But, they serve to squelch the kind of creative thinking needed by associations to confront future. Hence, people must embrace the possibilities of truly transformed futures and eliminate current circumstances as excuses for being satisfied with incremental actions.’ The paper examines why it is essential to be expeditionary and how to integrate expeditionary approaches to strategic planning.
