Good ground rules for lobbying groups
When you're putting together a group of individuals to try and have an impact on anything, you need to have rules. Some general understandings in order to keep everyone on the same page stop problems or misunderstanding before they begin.
What good does it do to have a group that doesn't get along or where everyone isn't paddling in the same direction?
Establishing a clear set of ground rules regarding how the group will make decisions is a must. Without a good upfront understanding of how things are supposed to happen you run the risk of having the group splinter when a decision is made that everyone doesn't agree with.
