Consensus-oriented decision-making : the CODM model for facilitating groups to widespread agreement
Tim Hartnett (Author)
Incorporating the principles of collaboration, inclusion, empathy, and open-mindedness, the consensus-oriented decision-making (CODM) process encourages shared ownership of group decisions. The method can be used in any group situation, regardless of whether the final decision-making power rests with a single person or team, a vote of members, or unanimity. From publisher description
