Which decisions:

  • Joint Decisions that are relevant to the whole oI team, that have an impact on the organization as a whole

  • Decisions with strategic weight, where we need the wisdom of the whole

Who decides: The whole team, based on consent, carried out by clearly appointed individuals or everyone, facilitated through the use of Loomio

Who’s involved: The whole oI team (incl. facilitator) & anyone who is consulted for advice. Advice is needed from all parties directly affected & persons with expertise in the field

Decisions taken by the whole oI team

Type & advice

  • Decisions made by the whole team following the principles of consent & advice

  • The process should be owned/ facilitated by one or a small group of team members. These owners make sure that the decisions are implemented once they are made

  • Preparing the decision with a proposal & a diligent amount of advice is helpful: who else has relevant information that should be consulted before a decision should be made? These are decisions that need a high amount of preparation and input as they impact a critical amount of people.

  • For larger decisions, advice can come through various channels, including one-on-one conversations, meetings, or online communication and loomio.

  • Use of : We use Loomio for ‘All of Us’-Decisions, as it allows us to step into clarity about the current stage of the decision. The advice process can be facilitated by Loomio, as well. A summary of all advice, and the final outcome of the decision should be added on loomio for reasons of documentation and transparency.

Examples

  • a new meeting structure for the international team’s monthly meetings

  • the development of a new program that changes how our initiatives wil work together

  • The general outline of the upcoming year
