Book Jacket Description
Proven through more than a decade of successful implementations at Fortune 500, high-growth companies, government agencies, and community organizations, this book guides you to:
-
Enlist everyone and discover shared hopes—by inviting hidden talent you avoid creating enemies and multiply your chances of success.
-
Uncover the real issues behind the disagreement, lay out all options, and gather the right information—using shared hopes as your lens, you can “see the whole tree before going out on a limb.”
-
Get everything on the table, write down choices that support shared hopes, and map solutions—by taking the guesswork out of decision making, it becomes clear which solution among multiple alternatives will generate the best outcome.
-
Look ahead and stay charged up—monitoring the effects of decisions and making adjustments as necessary to ensure that initial successes are sustainable and repeatable, while celebrating progress recognizes the contributions of each member and renews hope for further progress.
In addition to the 10-step process, there are six strategies to choose from and customize to your particular needs and limitations, from the “30-minute miracle,” to solving logistical challenges with “e-teams,” to building trust through the dissolution of long-standing differences. You’ll even learn how to solve problems in very large groups.

"Don Maruska's well-tested process makes it possible to reach high-quality decisions based on accessing everyone's good thinking and greatest hopes. He has found the means to bring out people's best qualities--their intelligence, their caring, their commitment. His process isn't a new fad piled on top of existing ones. It is a restoration of what has worked through time for people everywhere." |
