A Transformative Vision Unlocks the Innovative Potential of Aberdeen City, UK
Abstract The breakthroughs in terms of thinking, framing, and unlocking Aberdeen’s potential were realised during the envisioning phase of a transition management process. As thus, we zoom in on the envisioning phase and elaborate its outcomes as being the ‘critical phase’ in which diverse interests, perspectives, hidden assumptions, and ingrained perspectives were expressed, negotiated, and debated. This action resulted in a new understanding of the city’s persistent problems and a holistic perspective for future sustainability in the city. From our analysis, the successful output of the envisioning process was an integrative understanding of future aspirations that comply with sustainability values (intergenerational justice, fairness, equity) and, in turn, created a momentum for inclusive social dialogue and mobilised networks to take the vision into practice.
