Explanation
The Delphi technique is a structured risk (or information) gathering method in which experts respond to questionnaires anonymously, their responses are collected and summarized by a facilitator, and the summary is re-circulated to the experts for review and further input. This iterative process continues until consensus emerges. Anonymity prevents any single expert from dominating the discussion and reduces bias. Brainstorming is a group session without anonymity; expert judgment is a general term for consulting experts; SWOT analysis assesses strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats - none match the described iterative anonymous process.
