The PeoPles Consensus GuideConsensus decision-making is a democratic process with the main goal of incorporating

everyones voice into a solid accepted proposal. Instead of votes, a process of patience and

undersand is used.

Consensus decision-making has been used for thousands of years by societies such as the

Tribe of Abraham, the Iroquois Nation, the Quakers, and the Civil Rights, Feminist, and

Anti-war movements of the 1960s & 70s. Today, the consensus decision-making process

is being used all over the world in the Occupy Movement. This guide is a quick reference

and is meant to help speed the process along and keep it efcient by dening terms and

facilitation roles, and demonstrating Hand-signals.

13/16


Terms

Proposal - Proposals affect the entire group

and must be approved by consensus.

Announcement - Announcements do not

affect the entire group and consensus does

not need to be reached.Agreement - You agree.

Disagreement - You disagree, but will not

necessarily block or stand-aside. This is an

expression of opinion, not fact.

Stack - List of meeting participants wait-

ing to speak. Stack is kept so that partici-

pants do not need to keep their hand raised.

Once your name has been place don stack,

you can relax and formulate what you willsay until you are called to speak.

Direct Response - A correction or state-

ment of fact to what has just been said. This

will place you at the top of stack, so please

DO NOT USE IT TO STATE OPINION.

Point of Process - The topic of discus-

sion has been strayed from. To be used if

discussion has strayed away from the origi-

nal proposal. This will place you at the top

of stack, so please DO NOT USE IT TO

STATE OPINION.

Clarifying Questions - You did not under-

stand or hear completely what was just said.

The moderator/facilitator will ask for clari-

fying questions after a proposal is stated.

Concerns - You have a concern regarding

how the proposal will affect the entire group.

This can lead into discussion or modifca-

tion/amendment of the proposal. The mod-erator/facilitator will ask for concerns after

a proposal is stated.

Stand-aside - Abstention. You have a dis-

agreement with the proposal, but will let

it pass. You are incapable or unwilling to

participate in proposal. Stand-asides do not

block proposals.

Block - One person may block a proposal

from being passed. A block should only beused if the proposal endangers the organiza-

tion/group or its participants, or violates the

mission of the organization/group. Please

use bocks as a last resort.

Temperature Check - Used by Modera-

tor/Facilitator or Empath/Vibe-check to see

how far along towards consensus the group

is. Temperature Checks are not a binding

consensus.

Consensus - Proposal or motion is passed.

Stand-asides have been considered and thereare no remaining blocks.

Facilitation Roles

Moderator/Facilitator - This can be morethan one person, but the job is only to keepdiscussion on topic such as introducing newagenda items, repeating proposals, helping con-cerns and blocks be addressed, and calling for

consensus.Time-keeper - Simply put, this person

keeps time. If time limits are set, this per-

son makes sure no-one speaking, or agenda

items go over that limit.

Empath/Vibe-watch - Keeps track of gen-

eral morale based on body-language and

emotional responses. This person defuses

potential emotional conicts, maintains a

climate free of intimidation and remainsaware of potentially destructive power dy-

namics, such as sexism or racism within the

decision-making body.

Note-taker - Records the progress of meet-

ings in short concise notes.

Stack-taker - Takes the names of people

who have raised their hand in the order

raised so the crowd can hear them as they

are called to speak.
