Convergence for Group Consensu

[Michael M Pannwitz]

come on avner, thats simple:
you look in the catalogue of doors and find out how much that door 
costs, that is the door prize,
then you draw (write) the prize of the door on the door
got it?

After the combinations have been announced by the facilitation team, as people walk out through each of the aisles in the circle, they are handed a strip of tickets (e.g. 5 tickets).  They place their tickets in envelopes attached under each report on the wall.

One volunteer per report remains at the wall for the announcement of results. When counting is all done, the facilitator asks if any report has the maximum number of points a report could receive (e.g., same number as the number of participants when it's one vote per person per report), and then goes down by 10 until someone shouts that their report is in that range. As report numbers and titles are announced volunteers note them on flip charts to capture the priorities of the group.
