When to use it

  • Use it as a quick tool when a group must select one or more items from a list, for example as generated by a Brainstorming session.
  • Use it when it is important that the group accept the result as fair.
  • Use it when the knowledge to enable selection is spread within the group.
  • Use it when the opinion of all group members is equally valued.
  • It can also be used to 'test the water', to determine opinions without committing to a final selection.
  • Use it, rather than a Prioritization Matrix, when the added accuracy of the Prioritization Matrix is not worth the extra effort.
