Sociocracy is in love with Rounds, where everyone has a protected chance to offer comments on the matter at hand. While it s laudable to protect everyone s opportunity for input, this is only one of many choices available for how to solicit input on topics (others include open discussion, sharing circles, individual writing, small group breakout, silence, guided visualization, fishbowls). Each has their purpose, as well as their advantages and liabilities.
