Nominal group technique and Delphi method (Consensus methods)

The document discusses the Nominal Group Technique (NGT) and Delphi method, which are consensus methods used for problem-solving, idea generation, and determining priorities. The NGT is a structured face-to-face group process with stages of silent idea generation, round-robin feedback, discussion, and voting. The Delphi method uses questionnaires and feedback to gather anonymous experts' judgments to reach consensus over multiple rounds. Both methods aim to balance participation and minimize individual dominance to achieve group agreement.
