Consensus Decision Making
Consensus Decision Making Education & Online Training
Agreement vs. Consent Unanimity is achieved when the full group consents to a decision. Giving consent does not necessarily mean that the proposal being considered is one's first choice. Group members can vote their consent to a proposal because they choose to cooperate with the direction of the group, rather than insist on their personal preference.
