Rich Antcliff, in airing his doubts about the virtue of shared decision
making, says,
>(we pass) leadership around and take on a variety of roles. We agree by
>consensus, etc. The progress of these teams has been incredibly slow.
Perhaps the evaluation of progress requires a longer view. The
reaching of consensus may be time-consuming and difficult, but once
reached, may result in extremely rapid action. And it's action that's far
less likely to be accompanied by behind-the-scenes sniping or subtle
sabotage driven by a participant's perhaps unconscious desire to be able
to eventually say, "Well, I tried to tell you but you wouldn't listen."
