consensus

A quick definition of consensus:

Consensus: When a group of people all agree on something, that's called consensus. It's like when you and your friends decide what game to play together. Everyone talks about what they want to do, and then you all agree on one thing. Consensus is a good way to make decisions because it lets everyone have a say and find a solution that works for everyone. If someone doesn't agree, then you might need to take a vote instead.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: A general agreement or collective opinion.

For example, when a group of people come together to make a decision, they may discuss their opinions and ideas until they reach a consensus. This means that everyone in the group agrees on the same decision.

Consensus is often used in small groups or organizations where less formality is required. It allows for compromise and ensures that everyone's opinions are heard and considered before a decision is made.

One example of consensus being used successfully is in Quaker meetings. Quakers use consensus as their decision-making procedure, and it has been effective for them for many years.

Another example is in New England town meetings, where residents come together to discuss and make decisions about local issues. Consensus is often used in these meetings to ensure that everyone's opinions are taken into account.
