The TDG Advisor 1
An important check and balance for the TDG
Have you ever had a life situation that posed a challenge for you?
You pondered and pondered. The right answer was just not coming to you. You were uneasy about choosing a path that didn’t sound quite right.
Then someone comes into your social bubble — and makes a little comment that turns all your pondering into a much better path. Have you had this experience?
I’ve recently had such a life situation. Being a little wiser than I used to be, I deliberately sought out the opinions and perspectives of about 15 credible people. As I listened, the better answer came more and more apparent. I made my decision. I implemented that decision with confidence.
Had I only stuck with the ideas already in my head, I would not have made that good decision.
The Advisor
Tiered Democratic Governance (TDG) finds people of good character and capacity to serve in governance. The TDG encourages these people to work consultatively to find their decision. In contrast to western democracy, the elected TDG representatives do not champion their own ideas but talk through their opinions and perspectives to reach a better decision than any one of them could have attained by him- or herself.
