Purposedifferent | When a workshop has produced too many options and the group needs to condense quickly, dot voting makes preferences visible in a short time. It bundles individual votes into a solid signal for the next selection. | When loud voices could dominate a round, Nominal Group Technique protects individual thinking time from group effects. It collects ideas separately first and only then enables shared weighting. | It separates true priorities from noise so it becomes clear what should be done now, scheduled, delegated, or dropped. | The method protects energy and attention for the task that creates the largest progress and is often postponed. |
