Delphi Technique: A structured communication method originally developed as a systematic, interactive forecasting method that relies on a panel of experts. The experts answer questionnaires in two or more rounds. After each round, a facilitator provides an anonymous summary of the experts’ forecasts from the previous round, as well as the reasons they provided for their judgments. This process is intended to encourage convergence toward a correct answer over several rounds. The Delphi Technique is used for data collection and group problem-solving, particularly suitable for issues that do not have a precise analytical solution.
