- broad discussion of the issue at hand
- once the discussion moves toward a solution, someone makes a proposal
- the facilitator calls for consensus, and asks for questions and concerns
- if there are strong concerns, the proposal goes back to the discussion phase to figure out how to address the concerns in the proposal
- those taking part have the option to agree, stand aside, or block
