Collaborative Decisions, Inc. is a woman-owned management consulting firm which provides technology-based facilitation services, management training and professional and personal coaching to people in Industry and Government.

Our consultants are accomplished management, business, and technical professionals who are experienced in computer-assisted meeting facilitation, as well as training, human resources, management, project leadership, team leadership and traditional facilitation. They meet with clients to determine their needs, objectives and desired outcomes; then they strategize and design programs to help meet those objectives.

Collaborative Decisions uses computer-assisted facilitation techniques, particularly WebIQ, to produce powerfully productive meetings -- ones that generate better content, take less time, and provide immediate documentation. Participants are energized and focused. Using this Groupware technology, everyone contributes by simultaneously typing in their ideas and evaluating them quickly and efficiently. The high participation level promotes increased consensus and commitment to decisions. Collaborative Decisions is an authorized reseller of WebIQ.
