...can be achieved either through a consensus process or a negotiation process. They are two different things. The latter involves compromise. The former deliberately does not. I assume you give negotiation a context of being adversarial, while consensus telegraphs a more pleasant interchange. If that is the case, my take on the interview was that Powell prefers the consensus route. Regardless of how you label a two sided negotiation/consensus exchange, the essence of what he did say was: each side (right or wrong, or in between), leaves the table with a sense of accomplishment. I suspect we both are in agreement on this. ;-)
