“…Practices include working with analogies, scenario analysis, systems-dynamics mapping and back casting (Bezold, 2010;Boe-Lillegraven & Monterde, 2014;Rhisiart, Miller, & Brooks, 2015). The aim of this phase is to gain an insight advantage, including to interpret the right time to act by identifying tipping points.…”
