    • In modern management practices there is a term
      and process called Catchball

      which
      originated from a planning process known as Hoshin Kanari. Catchball is


      defined as:



      a communication process in which parties
      engage in a series of

      information exchanges about the means for
      achieving a particular objective. The

      purpose
      for the exchange is to build consensus around the best approach for


      achieving an objective. Catchball is based on
      the belief that the best approach

      will
      evolve from the back and forth exchange of information between the
      person

      who is
      responsible for achieving the objective and the persons who will be most


      influential in achieving it. The secondary
      benefit from using catchball is a

      higher
      degree of commitment to achieve the objective.
