Résumé

Real organizational change isn't brought about by decree, pressure, permission, or even persuasion. Sustained change comes when people are passionately committed to a future they've helped shape. To turn your organization's cynics into owners, give them a voice in the decisions that impact their work. Consensus Through Conversation shows how.

Consensus isn't mere acquiescence, it's a cooperative process through which group members develop decisions and agree to actively support them. Larry Dressier shows you how to prepare for a successful consensus-building process, takes you step-by-step through that process, and offers tips for success and traps to avoid. He provides a host of tools and examples that make this an eminently practical and immediately useful guide.

Consensus Through Conversation will give you the tools you need to use consensus effectively in your organization. It is a handy, vital reference that you will turn to again and again in your efforts to build enthusiasm and commitment to action.
