A Study on the Feature Analysis of the Success Pattern of Consensus Building Processes

Abstract

There are a lot of researches on consensus building. In research of group decision making support, it has been focused on whether we can make a rational decision by using optimization method. On making a rational decision by using optimization method, a result that all the members has high satisfaction rating on average may be obtained. However people do not always make a rational decision and perform harmonious consensus. Therefore, the authors observed the process on consensus building with selection problem and state limitation of optimization method and importance of communication on consensus building. Further, we took notice of remarks on consensus building and analyzed remarks in detail. At the result, we found “expression of reasons” is important to perform harmonious consensus. To quicken “expression of reasons” is expected to support consensus building.
