One paragaph which summarises the main ideas of the article.

Description 1

  • Consensus decision making usually follows brainstorming;
  • It is effective if and only if each expert has been provided with equal and adequate opportunity to present their views;
  • In order to arrive at a consensus, the knowledge developer conducting the exercise tries to rally the experts towards one or two alternatives;
  • The knowledge developer follows a procedure designed to ensure fairness and standardization;
  • This method is democratic in nature;
  • This method can be sometimes tedious and can take hours.
