About Consensus Method
You are asking us for help with a system that you are not using, we present one of several methods of applying the Consensus Method. One, in a spectrum of possibilities, is the one we have chosen as MAG. Let’s enter this world of the consensus decision method together. We enter a mysterious world, because everyone thinks differently.
A training together: futurospection, The concrete dream
You are not a new group, you are a struggling group, Let’s pick up the initial wish part and nurture it.
Initial dream assignment:
The group in 10 years, but very concretely, where are you, with whom, what are you doing. Write a letter to a loved one telling them about it. BEFORE THE NEXT MEETING
Importance of Imagination, to give birth to action. Without “”seeing”” it, you can’t do it.
Imagining is not easy, take your time, in optimal psycho-physical condition, not tired, nor hungry or cold, influence yourself positively and take care of yourself to do this action of imagination.”
4 positions
Dissent: important to understand when you’re there, because it’s useless to work on content, you have to work on trust. rather propose to move into the…
Technical agreement: agreement written as a law between people who don’t know each other, protect themselves, repeated technical agreements conducted successfully allow to raise trust and possibility to get to…
Unanimity: everyone agrees, it is the party of agreeing, difficult to raise doubts, risky position.
Consensus: different views on content, multiplicative mode, challenges both content and relationships, Understanding other points of view and valuing diversity. Learning how to best express oneself. It is not easy and involves effort. All a balance between “”asking for account””/””giving account””. Not hiding problems. It goes from “”I try to make my opinion win”” to “”we are here to find a shared solution””.
Tips
Example: no, don’t try to apply it in the condominium meeting.
Modularity: you can introduce in other group management methods, little by little some practices of the consensus method.
Non-monopoly: it is possible to have agreements to stop it in certain situations and resume it.
Preliminaries
1) Real willingness to share power (and its attributes: decisions, responsibility, damages, money, fame…). And this is where 9 out of 10 groups fall down.
2) Awareness of method, no just listen and be positive and/or inclusive, that’s only half the battle.
3) Have a common planning/goal, that’s why make a business plan.
4) Plan for the day, plan together on a daily basis.
5) The group collectively take charge of the method, and then to have facilitation (not on content) but of relationships/methods.
