What you are thinking of is what Rand originally developed.  It has been 
taken beyond that.  Here's a couple of links on the new and improved DT and 
the extension of it that is used in education, Alinsky Method:

And for those that don't want to be Delphi'd,

And, if you really want to figure out what is going on, look into 
"Sensitivity Training."  Another one used to control group behavior and not 
quite as "nice" and Delphi and Alinsky!
