Consensus is listening to everyone’s opinion and collectively choosing a solution that everyone can “live with”. The consensus process is inclusive and involves all participants. Consensus decisions lead to better quality outcomes – empowering families, groups, communities and societies to move forward to create a future together.
Consensus – The best solution that the group can achieve at a given time.
Advantages of Consensus:
Consensus helps to make decisions with the consent of all members of the group – rather than the group of elected representatives.
Consensus motivates partners to work together to find mutually agreeable, acceptable solutions.
Consensus fosters a sense of collective ownership that motivates us to actively participate in decisions that affect our lives.
Consensus provides a commitment to equality—empowered with creative solutions—and helps build effective groups.
Consensus is an essential part of the community maintenance process – serving as the foundation of sustainable communities.
Consensus encourages stakeholders to work together for the greater good to share a commitment to unity.
Consensus brings cooperation, closeness, unity, acceptance to family, group, community and society.
By consensus you arrive at something that everyone thinks is right. Most people love it and no one hates it.
