Consensus Decision-Making Process

Consensus decision-making is a collaborative process where a group seeks agreement on a decision that works for everyone involved. Rather than voting, which can lead to winners and losers, participants discuss options openly and aim to address everyone’s concerns. The goal is to find a solution that all members can support, even if it’s not their first choice. This process fosters inclusivity and respect, as all voices are heard, and it encourages commitment to the final decision, as everyone has a part in creating it.
