Reach a consensus on priorities from subjective data. Enable larger stakeholder groups to align.
Organized insights using the KJ Method. Clustered and prioritized data. A foundation for synthesis.
When I used this with 20 Federal Election Commission staff, it helped define priorities around conflicting requests. It's a great way to gather data from staff, especially when decision-makers aren't in the room. Keep an eye on group dynamics; sometimes a few dominant voices can skew the clustering. Gently encourage quieter participants to share their perspectives.
