The ORID tool for getting a group to reach a decision
see 3M Meeting Network - A Magical Tool for Group Decisions.
The ORID step ensures that people in a group ascend a 'ladder of inference' of reaching consensus, climbing one rung at a time together:
1. O (for Objective) - Ask the members what they recall seeing or hearing and list their answers on flip chart paper. Caution: Keep people focused on what they observed with their senses. Disallow interpretations and opinions at this stage.
2. R+ (for Reflective positive) - Ask members what they had positive reactions to and list their responses.
3. R- (for Reflective negative) - Ask members what they had negative reactions to and list their responses. What will be positive for some may be negative for others. That's okay and exactly why you are doing this.
4. I (for Interpretive) - Ask members what sense they make of the data and record their responses. Hint: It's easier to assign meaning by thinking about what headline a reporter might write about this data.
5. D (for Decisional) - Ask the members what decisions they can now make as a group. Help them work individual proposals into consensus decisions.
