Consensus Decision Making

Participate in The Open Group Forums and Work Groups

The Open Group is a global consortium that develops open standards and certifications for IT solutions. Its Forums and Work Groups provide a platform for members to collaborate on industry issues and develop best practices. By participating in these groups, you can gain insights into the latest trends, share your knowledge, and contribute to the advancement of the IT industry.

Consensus Decision Making Process

The Open Group uses a consensus decision-making process in its Forums and Work Groups. This process aims to achieve agreement among all participants by incorporating everyone's perspectives and concerns. Consensus-based decision making is different from majority decision making, where the decision is made based on the views of the majority. In consensus-based decision making, there is no voting or counting of opinions, and the goal is to find a solution that all participants can support.
