Abstract
According to one embodiment of the present invention, a method is provided and includes separating a plurality of persons into first and second groups and communicating an issue to each of the groups. The issue relates to a problem to be addressed by the groups. Each of the groups then independently evaluate the issue. The groups then caucus to produce a consensus on an evaluation of the issue. The groups then separate and each group independently generates a proposed strategy. The groups then caucus thereafter, resulting in a consensus on the proposed strategy. The selected proposed strategy is then initiated.
