Consensus Navigation

We are creating the Wellthy=Wealthy Entrepreneur program. This program is an integrated suite of products, services and experiences available for aspiring, new and seasoned entrepreneurs to access for a free and a fee – depending on your request or requirement.

Entrepreneurs will create and grow a thinking-feeling-intuiting, ethical decision making platform that balances personal well-being with well-living principles and practices. This balancing then frames harmonious interactions with paying customers and clients without regard to resources currently controlled.

One practice within the thinking-feeling-intuiting, ethical decision making platform is ‘consensus navigation.’

My Use

I’ve used the tool I’m about to share to great success in many meetings where decision hiccups were encountered. Clients who I’ve taught to use the tool have reported that it has helped them as well.

Before I share the four actions of consensus navigation, I’m going to define the terms consensus and navigation.

Why? Because when you get the meaning of the words, it frames a greater appreciation for the practice. Words matter!

Consensus = con + sensus

Con is to examine carefully (con of the ship is the place to steer the ship).

Sensus (latin) is to notice something, to have an opinion with thought and feeling.

Consensus is to examine something carefully, to have noticed the something so as to offer an opinion framed with ideas and feelings.

Facilitating a Group Development Activity

Navigation = noun = theory and process of discovering a direction for travelling.

Navigating = verb = act of travelling according to the direction determined.

Navigation involves decision making to take up the direction and to move forward.

Consensus navigation means people are participating in decision making to seek a level of agreement for moving forward.

When a group encounters a hiccup or stall point, consensus navigation is a helpful process to navigate forward- aware of the ideas and feelings.
