Towards Self-Governance: Strategy as a tool to promote real inclusive development in future self-governed communities

Abstract:

This paper makes a reflexion about the idea that societies will evolve increasingly towards models of self-governance and that the discipline of Strategy - and many of its components and tools - can be one of the most effective approaches to help regions and communities cope with Complexity and the 'dangers' and 'benefits' of interdependence. The author believes that by adopting the model of self-governance with the help of some of those mentioned tools, there is a real possibility that regions and communities can benefit from tangible and inclusive development, one that reaches the real aspirations of people, bringing at the same time, cohesiveness and the celebration of diversity across many dimensions.
