Abstract: This article develops and uses a futures sensemaking and decision-making tool with which to navigate the multi-ontology topology of strategic landscapes. The research approach is design science; i.e., research clearly targeted at developing a means to an end. The tool is described according to an eight-point structure of a design theory proposed by Gregor and Jones (2007), presenting specific testable propositions. The authors show how the tool works in three practical cases by referencing an underlying kernel theory, sensemaking theory. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]
