| Before
stakeholder meetings,
we: |
|
 |
Conduct
pre-negotiation
assessments
to determine
the issues parties
need to discuss
and the likelihood
of reaching
agreements. |
|
Accomplish a
quick study
of new information
to function
effectively
in new substance
areas. |
|
Design processes
to enable diverse
groups to construct
innovative solutions
that reflect
existing possibilities
and constraints. |
|
Create process
maps that
illustrate each
stage of the
dynamic consensus
process needed
to address the
issues related
to the public
policy challenges. |
|
|
| During
stakeholder meetings,
we: |
|
|
Facilitate
focused meetings
in which stakeholder
representatives
discuss all
issues, options,
and decision
points required
to effectively
address the
public policy
question or
conflict. |
|
Manage
the power, passion,
and conflict
fundamental
to public policy
negotiations. |
|
Assist stakeholders
in understanding
the opportunities
and constraints
inherent in
their particular
governance system
and foster decision-making
within that
system. |
|
Conduct on-going
analysis of
negotiation
processes to
create and apply
innovative and
cutting-edge
mediation tools. |
|
As needed, SP&A
creates additional
process mechanisms
to enable participation
by other individuals
who may perceive
themselves as
having authority
to act, an ability
to block an
agreement from
being implemented,
important and
useful information,
or deep concerns
and interests
in the outcome.
Information
generated through
such mechanisms
is integrated
into the decision-making
process of the
representative
stakeholders. |
|
|
| For
all projects, SP&A
takes into account: |
|
|
The
system within
which a public
policy question
or conflict
emerges. |
|
Bureaucratic
intricacies
and dynamics
within and among
government agencies.
|
|
The
key dynamics
of governance
systems and
the interactions
among and between
different levels
of government. |
