RE: SOCW6361 – Small Group Discussion: Policy Agendas (WK5)

There are challenges to agenda building that if not dealt with carefully and skillfully can adversely affect an issue or a proposal that you are trying to place in front of a decision maker. On the other hand, no matter how expertly you build an agenda for your issue or proposal, some issues are going to simply be avoided or not selected for consideration.

Why is this so? ( MAke sure to anser this question also)

In this Small Group Discussion, you explore challenges surrounding policy agendas and the reasons why some proposals never make it to the decision maker.

Post your responses to the following questions presented for Small Group Discussion:

(Be detailed in response, use sub-headings and 2 APA references)

  • Some issues receive significant attention from decision makers. Why might these issues easily find their way onto decision makers’ agendas?
