MAKE A GROUP DECISION

Encourage participation and achieve consensus

Present and understand precisely what is needed.  Identify the options and assess the pros and cons.  Follow a clear, visual process.  Communicate clearly the outcome of the review and the analysis.  Ensure everyone feels included and are satisfied with the outcome.  Explain to others how the decision was reached.

Elstar Consulting use the Business Decision Mapping (BDM) technique, developed by Dr Tim van Gelder of Austhink.  BDM provides a common language and toolset with which a group can quickly and concisely review a problem, consider the options and debate the pros and cons.   BDM aims to support your decision making process, making it easier, more reliable and more accountable.  Using the bCisive™ decision mapping tool, we ensure that your decision making is easy to follow and communicate to others.  See the bCisive™ web site for more information.
