Facilitator and Group Process Consultant
Consensus 101
What is this mysterious, magical decision-making process anyway? This full-day workshop serves as an introduction for those new to consensus and a refresher for those who feel their community or organization may not be using it most effectively. We'll focus on collaborative decision-making tools you can really use!
Workshop topics include:
- Definition(s) of consensus
- Why use consensus?
- When not to use consensus
- What factors help/hinder consensus
- How to “do” consensus: the process
- What to do when it doesn’t work
Workshops tentatively scheduled this summer for groups in Santa Monica, Santa Rosa, and Laytonville.

Testimonials
"To watch skilled facilitating is a real treat - The respect with which people were heard and treated was heart warming."

"Eris is excellent -- she is strong, funny, smart, and not afraid to call people on their b.s., if needed. She is intrepid. I don't think that conflict bothers her much, if at all."
