Within the ARCI model this seems to be one of the most widely used roles. Because we work within a community structure and our world is creative, it is important for us to exchange ideas as much as possible. That of course, could be considered the pro, but must also be seen as a con. If there are too many ideas being exchanged and too many people being sought out for an opinion and stop gap is inevitable and very painful. This role is important and must be reasonable.
1. To seek advice or information of
2. To exchange views; confer.

In referring to our garbage analogy, who is consulted is not as clear. As it is in most households, Mom is never simply "told" what is going on. Mom may have a better idea on how to most effectively get the trash collected around the house. (And, she WILL have an opinion) So, in other words, Dad would consult with Mom on his plan and ask her for an opinion. This is two-way communication, and the true definition of the Consulted role of the ARCI.
