Voting-based decision making is another type of [[group decision making]]. Various types of voting.
Strengths:
- Encourages ownership of decision
- Prevents one or few people from taking over
- Can move quickly
Weaknesses:
- Creates winners and losers, which can harm relationships
- Could move too quickly and encourage people to ignore some information
- Can lead to inaccurate results if members don't actively listen and vote based on feelings and preconceptions ([note on p.7](zotero://open-pdf/library/items/FQ672TGH?page=7))
