“You just need to bring your brain, something to write with, something to write on, and someone to work with...”
Desired Outcomes are carefully crafted statements that define what the future looks like when it is working “just right”, or “well”, or “well enough”.

Path Dependency makes clear the journey by which Outcomes are realized and highlights the critical decisions which open up or close down alternative futures.
