Question

Natalie's team needs to make a decision on how to handle a big product recall. People on the team have a lot of strong opinions. Management wants everyone to come to a consensus and to find a solution that everyone can support. What's the best way to get to a consensus?

a) Everyone on the team talks until the entire team agrees on one decision. O b) Everyone on the team discusses options and then votes. Oc) The team passes the decision-making responsibility to an outside person. O di The team leader makes a decision without input from the other members.

Answer 1

a) Everyone on the team talks until the entire team agrees on one decision.

Explanation:

Option B consists of voting and not everyone would like the outcome. Option C is making an outsider the decision maker, which can't be helpful since he / she won't have as strong opinions as the team itself. Option D is just plain wrong as it defeats the purpose of team work and deciding as one team. So, I believe option A makes the most sense
