Join Mike Figliuolo for an in-depth discussion in this video Making consensus-based decisions, part of Decision-Making Strategies.
- The fourth style of decision making…is Consensus-Based Decision Making.…This is where decisions are reached…with a cross-functional team.…People from different departments are having their input,…and buy-in is essential.…You should reserve this style of decision-making…for the biggest decisions you're trying to make.…However, recognize this can take a lot of time.…You have to get everybody saying "yes",…before that decision is made.…So you're going to have individuals…from multiple groups, multiple functions,…all working together,…coming up with that final perspective…for the final decision.…
And performance of the individuals…is measured by the team's outcome,…since everyone is involved in making that call.…Allow me to offer an example.…At one point, we were launching…a brand new website for our company.…This was a major investment for the organization,…and we needed to make sure we got it right.…Now, there was no urgency around making this call,…and we knew there would be a lot of meetings,…a lot of analysis that needed to be done.…
