Field Note #047 | Consensus is often mistaken for agreement.
Description
Everyone agreed.At least, that is what the meeting appeared to say.
But there is a difference between people believing a decision is right and people simply deciding that the conversation is over.
------
This episode explores what happens in the space between those two states.
- Why does apparent agreement disappear during implementation?
- Why can an entire room remain aligned while the organisation behaves as though nothing was settled?
- And what can we learn by asking a deceptively simple question: “What will you do differently tomorrow because of this decision?”
Consensus is visible in the room.
Agreement becomes visible in the work.
Consensus ends a conversation.
Agreement changes behaviour.

Stay Tuned…
