THE DELPHI TECHNIQUE
About Consensus and Facilitation
(See this page! It contains a superset of the following.)
Main page of Lynn
Stuter's site.
Using the Delphi Technique to Achieve Consensus
Logical Incrementalism.
Logical Incrementalism is small, seemingly insignificant
steps toward a goal. This appears in the form of compromise, no matter
how small it may appear. It also emerges as an earlier start of the
school year, a break in the Fall when there was not one before, a three week
Christmas vacation, an earlier start of Easter vacation, etc. The Delphi
Technique explains how groups are manipulated toward a predetermined outcome
through facilitation of meetings. You may find that this looks very
familiar as you apply it to your own school/district administration.
