Task force reports, strategic plans, and whitepapers produced through Confluence PSG processes. Most facilitated processes produce a report. These are the reports that also changed laws, rewrote codes, reset agency policies, and redesigned systems.
Most AI legislation gets written the way legislation normally gets made: a bill arrives already drafted, and every party’s first move is to defend or attack a position instead of understanding one. This paper makes the case for a different approach: get the people with real expertise in the room, let them establish what actually matters to each side before anyone is asked to negotiate, and test whether an agreement holds before it becomes law rather than after. Colorado passed an AI law in 2024 that drew immediate pushback, and two subsequent attempts to replace it failed before a structured process built this way produced one that passed overwhelmingly, signed just thirteen days after introduction. The paper offers a roadmap for the legislators, governors, and attorneys general who have to build this.
The whitepaper that documents the CDMP framework in full. It makes the case that most high-stakes collaborative processes fail not because the people in them are unreasonable but because the processes themselves were designed wrong, explains the reasoning behind each of the five phases, and provides the evidence base for why the sequence produces outcomes that standard facilitation cannot.
