520 |a "Does your group need help making good decisions? All groups--teams, boards, nonprofits, businesses, governments--must make decisions to make forward progress. In organizations large and small, simple and complex, public and private, people need to decide things together. With tips, principles, examples, and stories, Craig Freshley shares the essentials that groups need to make decisions that provide lasting benefits. Practical and authoritative, this friendly guide from a veteran group facilitator is a must-have for those seeking proven techniques for collaborative decision-making. Board members and senior staff in the nonprofit sector--where there's often a high expectation of collaboration--and corporate leaders who have a collaborative, inclusive mindset or culture, will find this book particularly valuable. Freshley's message is especially pertinent to today's world: It's through collaboration, not competition, that groups of the future will create, innovate, and thrive. It is collaboration, not competition that will save us from extinction."--Publisher's description
