9 Methods to Test for Consensus

A
  • thumbs up/down (good initial check)- finger count (use 1-10 fingers to show level of support for a measure)- assign a devil’s advocate to ward off groupthink- all say 1 think they like & dislike- “it seems the group has reached a consensus. am I right?”- go around the room and ask for input. lets you expllore the resaons for disagreement- looks like we have reached a consensus. on a scale of 1-5, what is your level of agreement- before we implement this decion, what reservations do we have- when you return to your office, what will you say about the decision we have made today (ultimate test of consensus)
