By periodically viewing this video, and using the technique you will:

• Learn how to use a Forum in the place of other techniques that you may be required to use under local, state, or federal by-laws . . . while meeting those guidelines,
  
  
• Know when confronting a major decision, how to effectively use the Forum to get your PAIs (Potentially Affected Interests -- publics) to understand the various issues surrounding that decision,



• Also learn how to reap the benefits of using the Forum for documentation of the background that contributed to the decision.

This Technique's Drawbacks / Considerations:

• When used as suggested, there are hardly any drawbacks . .

When you purchase the tape on Public Hearings, we include with it the lecture on Conducting a Forum automatically. Likewise, if you purchase the tape on Forums, we will include the lecture on Public Hearings because of how we recommend intertwining the two techniques. (If you have already purchased either of these tapes and did not receive the other, you can purchase that tape separately: Public Hearing along: $85, Conducting a Forum $135.)
