Definition: To have a clear vision which allows you to develop alternative ways of reaching future goals within a changing environment.
Visionary thinking is long term, rather than short term and it explores the deeper causes of problems to find workable solutions. Visionary leaders anticipate change and are proactive, rather than reactive, to events. Their focus is on opportunities, not on problems and they tend to emphasize win/win approaches, rather than adversarial win/lose approaches.
