In a recent blog/discussion on the international aid community (Jennifer Lentfer at < http://www.how-matters.org/2012/10/15/the-ego-and-international-aid/comment-page-1/#comment-36077>and human ego, I wrote:
"One of the problems , in my experience (in about a billion different types of mtgs. with different people around the world)is the lack of true consultation skills and experience as a preparation for both leadership and problem-solving, in or outside the aid community. Yes,the ego is ever-present, but the absence of consultation principles is glaring. When such skills are learned and practiced by groups over time, I have seen miracles!"
In your experience, what is the difference between dialogue, discussion, and consultation? Pick one, practice them all, and the world will change.
