varied methods and processes to achieve the needed outcomes. Some
common techniques and processes include:

of unified message, levels out communication between varied levels
and personalities within an organization.

healthy bounds for productive outcomes, clarifying agreement
and lack of agreement, seeking opportunities to move understandings
and relationships forward

capturing the synergy of group energy
