Compromise Compromise Compromise

There are many ways in which people come to a consensus. Sometimes it can get hectic. In a group decision, there are many different people we come across. We have those that 'compete to win', those that Avoid, those that compromise, those that accommodate, and finally those that Collaborate. My role in this whole ordeal was someone who was willing to compromise. I knew there was alot at stack and that everybody was going to look out for their own self interest. So the only way i saw fit to act was to compromise. In the class there was a few students whom felt they had to compete to win, but i feel that this ultimately slowed the classes progress. Of course student have every right to look out for their own interest, especially those that did well on the exam, but too much of this can blur the groups goal. I think collaborating is also an excellent way of coming to a decision. And there were some people in the class that i wished would think about avoidance. i guess this is why most of the time people are not required to come to a unanimous decision. Because too many people doing too many things results in disaster. I guess its true what they say, "too many cooks spoil the broth"
