At Coda, we regularly utilize the $100 voting method during our board meetings and in our annual and quarterly planning sessions.
This technique has proven invaluable in forcing stakeholders to reveal their true priorities. In a landscape where every project and idea can seem urgent and important, $100 voting effectively teases out the real value stakeholders assign to each initiative.
Participants are given $100 in symbolic funds to invest, mimicking the allocation of scarce resources. This not only illuminates genuine preferences but also promotes thoughtful investment in the projects deemed most valuable.
We have a more advanced variation of this template that allows you to group your stakeholders into different types and then analyze investments by stakeholder type. See
