Describe your experience working in a group setting to determine policy. What is your style in such a setting to reach agreement and manage local government? Explain how you think that will be effective in producing effective actions and decisions with the Villa Park board.


The best style in such a setting is to foster open communication, encourage active participation, and establish a shared understanding of the goals and objectives of the community. This can be achieved through effective collaboration, delegation of tasks, and regular check-ins.

In order to reach agreement, it's important to consider the perspectives and opinions of all community members, and work to find common ground.

This can be done through active listening, and the use of tools such as brainstorming, consensus-building exercises, and facilitated discussions.

Effective leadership is also critical in producing effective actions and decisions. The leader should encourage collaboration, foster a positive group dynamic, and provide support and guidance to group members.

In addition, the leader should ensure that the group stays focused on its goals and objectives, and helps members to stay engaged and motivated throughout the process.
