Abstract:
Nominal Group Technique (NGT) is a structured approach to consensus development and data collection driven by problem-solving, idea inception and prioritisation. Challenges of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic necessitated the development of a virtual (vNGT) model to recruit participants from diverse locations and time zones. Our reflections reveal the opportunities and challenges of using Zoom © for NGT sessions, resulting in more effective engagement and focus with fewer distractions compared to in-person meetings. The 12 tips provide practical suggestions for expanding the versatility of NGT in a virtual environment. These recommendations cover every aspect of the process, including the person, place, and object, from planning the sessions, and utilising technology resources effectively, to ensuring a seamless implementation to desirable outcomes. The paper strives to assist individuals in effectively using the online NGT as a substitute for in-person events, promoting effective management of remote participants even during unprecedented times of quarantine and physical distancing.
