It outlines various engagement approaches, including consensus organizing models, choosing a facilitator, group brainstorming, nominal group techniques, Delphi techniques, and interviewing. The goal is to incorporate diverse perspectives, generate ideas, and build support for plans through inclusive processes. Key benefits noted are gathering insights, engaging expertise, building skills and capacity, and generating interest to aid implementation.
This document provides guidance on measuring outcomes for non-profit programs and services. It discusses the importance of measuring both process and outcome data. Process data describes what an organization does, like activities and outputs, while outcome data measures changes in clients, like knowledge gained or behaviors changed. The document then offers tips on determining which outcomes to measure, developing tools to measure them, assigning responsibilities, and timelines. Finally, it provides examples of tools that can be used, like surveys, interviews, and observations, and advises on documenting processes and keeping measurement systems simple.

This document summarizes a sociological model and tools for mineral exploration companies to build positive relationships with communities. It is based on 240 interviews and 9 case studies. The model involves understanding reference communities, interactional needs, and building trust through dialogue. Relationships are key to success. Matrices can track relationship quality over time. Internally, companies should apply these processes to integrate cultures and adapt externally. Understanding sociological processes allows strategies to develop shared meanings and overlap between a company and communities.

Designing more effective participatory decision-making processesAberdeen CES
This document discusses designing effective participatory decision-making processes for environmental management. It provides context on the Ecosystem Approach and increasing stakeholder participation. The literature suggests starting participation early, involving the right stakeholders, communicating goals, and being flexible. Ongoing work examines how contextual factors and participation modes affect outcomes. Emerging lessons indicate low participation leads to simple solutions while high participation enables deeper understanding but complex solutions. Policymakers need involvement for short-term impact but that can limit new ideas. Tailoring processes to contexts and participants can improve social and environmental outcomes.
Strategies to enhance research impact: Six lessonsODI_Webmaster
John Young's presentation at the GDN workshop on 'Maximizing the Impact of Agricultural Research in Africa' held in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia in October 2008. In his talk, he reviews and expands upon the six lessons that ODI's RAPID programme has learned about helping research inform policy and practice.
Managerial decision making involves complex choices that must be made with unclear information and conflicting views. There are several models that can be used for decision making, including the classical, administrative, and political models. The classical model involves logical choices based on complete information, while the administrative model recognizes limitations in rationality and information. The political model views decisions as outcomes of bargaining among stakeholders with differing goals. Effective decision making involves defining the problem, developing alternatives, and selecting and implementing a solution while considering an individual's decision style and level of participation sought from others.
Open Policy Making aims to improve policymaking by making it more open, evidence-based, and iterative. It involves broadening engagement with experts and the public, using new analytical techniques from various disciplines, and taking agile approaches to iterative policy implementation, testing, and feedback. The goals are to ensure policies are informed by a wide range of views and the best evidence, consider the user perspective, and are effectively implemented in the real world.
Managerial decision making involves cutting off undesirable alternatives to select the best option. Decisions range from routine programmed decisions to complex non-programmed decisions with uncertainty. Models for decision making include the classical rational model, administrative bounded rationality model, and political model that considers conflict. The decision process involves defining the problem, gathering information, developing alternatives, selecting an option, implementing it, and evaluating outcomes. Personal decision styles like directive, analytical, conceptual, and behavioral also influence the approach. Participation levels in group decisions range from autocratic to democratic based on factors like expertise and commitment.

Example eConsultation practices from digital tools are provided. Key topics discussed include managing the consultee experience, dialogue, and results. The document emphasizes that there is no 'one size fits all' approach and that ensuring consultation integrity through clear framing and the CLEAR principle is important.

7. The impact on policymaking
● There is rarely a single, best solution to an issue.
● Emphasis shifts from finding “best” solutions to “balancing” competing
values and interests.
● Public policy goals are often bigger than government and achieving
them requires resources and effort from outside government.
● Shared goals require a shared plan.
● We must get beyond the silos – policy vs implementation.
How do we achieve this? 7
11. Consultation: the rules of the game
11
Competitive
The object is to gain influence over
the decision maker (zero-sum)
Advocate for your views
But there is little accountability for this
and makes cheating possible
1. Compete with others by advocating for your view
2. Decision is made by an independent body who is:
○ Fair
○ Competent
The impact of this:
15. The Rules of Deliberation: Trust
15
Openness
Information relevant to the process is
mutually not being withheld
Responsibility
Participants are willing to abide by the
resulting decision
Mutual Respect
Genuine willingness to consider others’
point of view
Inclusiveness
Positions are meaningfully represented
throughout the process
20. The decision rules
➢ Two questions determine what process to use:
Can the decision makers construct a comprehensive
narrative that will be accepted by those affected?
20
Are the decision-makers
competent to consolidate views
on their own?
Can the solutions be delivered
by the decision-makers?
24. Moving beyond consultation: What difference does it
make?

Objectives and
expectations are

The process is
more disciplined,
rules-based and
