The Facilitator's Guide to Participatory Decision Making provides the tools to put our democratic values into practice in groups and organizations. It is a fabulous how-to manual designed to help groups increase participation and collaboration, honor diversity, and make effective, participatory decisions. Loaded with graphics, guidelines and hand outs, The Facilitator's Guide to Participatory Decision Making covers the mechanics of group decision making, closure, building realistic agendas, surviving the groan zone, finding win-win solutions, and more! It features an exciting new model of participatory decision-making that will help group members learn to make effective, timely decisions that each member understands. It is perfect for managers wanting a more inclusive decision-making structure, for participants struggling to overcome poor group dynamics, for seasoned practitioners wanting to improve their skills at helping groups decide, and for students of working group dynamics. The authors all work with Community at Work which specializes in the dynamics of participatory groups. They are based in San Francisco, CA.
