Check list of the Delphi Technique:
Attendees are told their input is important and
might even be referred to as "stakeholders".
Polls, surveys or questionnaires are generally
presented. The questions are designed to
support a pre-determined outcome. They rarely
have a "none of the above" choice.
The group is generally divided into smaller
groups and assigned a small aspect of the bigger
issue. Participants in each group are not privy to
the comments/concerns of the other groups.
Each 'break out group' will have a facilitator
that will 'guide' their discussion.
Eventually the smaller groups will come
together and share their 'findings'.
If you disagree with the 'premise' of the policy
or choices being offered, you are likely to be
marginalized or even insulted. This permits the
planners to control any dissent to the predetermined outcome.
