- Notes
- The author, who works as the Marketing Director for Wood Lake Books, describes how they have been "using a collaborative process for making big decisions. The literature on employee-owned companies says that participatory decision-making takes longer. However, the belief is that it's more efficient in the long run, because, once the decision has been made, there's no resistance to it. Everyone has been involved in the whole process. Everyone is at peace. We have been following the process described by Danny E. Morris and Charles M. Olsen in `Discerning God's Will Together: A Spiritual Practice for the Church (Upper Room Books, 1997)".
