Decisions
Reaching a decision is the key purpose of meetings. There are a range of decision making methods, two of the most commonly used methods are voting and consensus decision making.
Voting | Consensus |
Assumes conflict is inevitable | Emphasizes cooperation between members |
Assumes that the majority prevail | Assumes that decision can be agreed by all |
Some issues may require more formal voting to be anonymous | Chairperson makes suggestion but not to force a decision |
Advantage of being quick, everyone can participate | When there isnt agreeance those who disagree are asked to give alternatives, or asked if they will stand aside to allow the group to move forward |
Reduces chance of decisions being held up | At end chair person asks all if they agree |
