Come eseguirlo

  1. 1

    Explain to the group that they will be using their fingers to indicate their level of agreement, with 5 fingers meaning full agreement and a fist indicating complete disagreement.

  2. 2

    Present the topic or decision for which you want to gauge consensus.

  3. 3

    Ask participants to raise their fingers simultaneously to show their level of agreement.

  4. 4

    Observe the range of responses to determine the group's consensus level.

  5. 5

    Decide on the next steps based on the level of agreement shown.

Suggerimenti

  • Use this method to quickly assess where the group stands without lengthy discussions.

  • If there is a wide range of responses, consider facilitating further discussion or mediation to address differing viewpoints.

Variazioni

For a more nuanced approach, you can ask participants to explain their choice after the initial show of fingers, allowing for deeper insights into their perspectives.
