Is the Pastor Dominating the Meeting?
I hope that doesn't reflect groupthink or keying off of the loudest voice in the room. It probably means the pastor is dominating in that case. Well, I mean, there are different ways to go about it. Maybe if you have an elder culture where you decide that there's going to be vigorous dissent in the room but when it gets taken to the church, we're all going to kind of revote for public purposes and it'll be unanimous when we go to the public. That's a common thing that you do in leadership situations. And another one though would be, I think one main argument against having everything unanimous is that it is really easily hijacked by one person.
