Signification
To agree on something together.
Contexte culturel
The 'Danish Model' relies on the ability of labor unions and employers to 'komme til enighed' without government intervention. This is a point of national pride. Consensus culture is prevalent across the region. Decisions are often delayed until everyone 'kommer til enighed', which can be frustrating for those from top-down cultures. In Danish offices, a manager will often ask 'Er vi kommet til enighed?' rather than giving a direct order, to ensure team buy-in. Danish courts often encourage 'retsmægling' (court mediation) to help parties 'komme til enighed' before a judge makes a final ruling.
