Examine the stages of the ODDI process model of group decision-making,and identify the one stage that you feel could be skipped with few ill effects.

The ODDI process model of group decision-making consists of five stages: Orientation, Discussion, Decision, Implementation, and Evaluation. Each stage plays a crucial role in ensuring that the group makes well-informed and effective decisions.

However, if I had to identify one stage that could potentially be skipped with few ill effects, it would be the Evaluation stage. While evaluation is important for assessing the outcomes of the decision and identifying any areas for improvement, it may not always be necessary in every decision-making process. In some cases, the group may have a clear understanding of the decision's impact and may not require a formal evaluation process.

That being said, it's important to note that skipping the Evaluation stage should only be considered in specific circumstances where the decision is relatively straightforward and the group is confident in its implementation. In most cases, all stages of the ODDI process model should be followed to ensure thorough and effective group decision-making.
