How long does it take to formulate a vision?
You will seldom formulate a good vision at the first attempt. A vision usually has to mature slowly. It can take as long as a year to progress from the original idea to the final vision
Vision creation sessions
If you are going to work with a group allow for at least three meetings to formulate the vision. The intervals between the meetings should not be too short, but they should also not be too far apart. You need the time between the sessions to:
- Make a summary of the results of the previous session
- Collect additional information
- Think of creative solutions, for example for structural obstacles
- Prepare the next session.
