Practical Question

[Jeff Aitken]

Marty,

I've run a bunch of 3 hour open spaces, and I prefer 45 - 45 for two sessions. There's enough time for people to get some depth with a topic, and yet if their topic is over in 10 minutes it's easy for them to move to another session.

> We have three hours in total.  For various reasons, I need to leave 45 minutes for the intro, and 45 minute for the closing circle.  This leaves me 1.5 hours for the small groups.  So my options are:
> 
> 
> 
> A.  3 sessions of 30 minutes each
> 
> B.  2 sessions of 45 minutes each
> 
> 
> 
> Option B would allow longer conversation, but Option A might give a greater buzz.

> All thoughts and advice welcome!
